There's probably one that came before the one I put together, but as linked before:

https://github.com/ahungry/p99-patcher

For the patcher + bonus features thing I was setting up a couple years ago, it includes a client side map app (it tracks the /log data and plots it in a locally run web browser that refreshes via javascript) - never got around to making an overlay like Norrath Map did or a spiffy marketing oriented site.

Regarding google ads, I'll say it isn't much - prior to the "suggestion" popup to disable ABP it was less than what monthly hosting cost me for the VPS (that being around twenty a month, although I could probably find cheaper I'm pretty happy with my host), afterwards its a lil over (the logger itself gets around 2000/unique hits a month, so I net about one cent per user at the moment).
