Shouldn't be hard.  Simply run uptime in a crontab job everything 5 minutes 
(or whatever) and convert the days HH:MM portion of the output to epoch 
seconds and store it into a file using the usual header conventions Orca 
expects.  Create a .cfg specific for this information and start graphing.

I asked this question recently.  In short, yes you can.  The Search field 
on the main page searches EVERYTHING including the mailing list.  The web 
page content is very limited so the search results you get will almost 
entirely be made up of mailing list hits.
