   I need to know how to ping a Minecraft server, so it will return with the amount of players online.
   
   I know that i can use the API
   

   Code:

   Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers().length;

   But i need the code for an external server, not for a plugin.
   
   If anyone can help me, thanks!

   I don't have any experience with sending raw data packets either but here's an example I found: http://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=96035
