You use the Microsoft gaming ActiveX control.<br>

Just kidding -- there's no such thing. All that sort of information is proprietary, and it's unlikely that AOL would release it because they don't want people cheating in their games. Many of the multi-player games (like Quake Arena) use data encryption to keep people from writing bots to do nasty things that aren't allowed (like auto-teleporting behind all the other players and fragging them).<br>

If you're looking for some way to track your skill levels in various games (so you can see yourself improve over time), I'd suggest using a spreadsheet program. Or use VB and a database, and throw the results onto a chart OCX.<br>
