Is there any way to count files on a ftp server?

I wish to monitor several FTP server catalogs.

Current version of HM can check number of files in local or shared directory only.
HM 3.40 (will be available soon) supports external tests written on different script languages (like VBScript, JScript). You can find ActiveX component that supports FTP protocol (there are a lot components in the Internet for $10-$30, probably you can find freeware component) and write simple script (10-15 lines) that will perform test.
