As long as you will not be changing the number of game servers you monitor, 
send a status message like this:

&global_color $machine.$test <many words>
&color server1 is OK|NOK 
server1_players: <INTEGER>
&color server2 is OK|NOK
server2_players: <INTEGER>

Make sure you have a new line after the last entry. Remove any rrd files if 
you have changed the number of servers you want to graph.
