I can't say I can offer much help on the topic since I don't know much about it myself however if truly interested in it, Yahoo and Google will tell you anything and everything you ever want to know. Of course you probably know this, I sure hope you do, but sometimes it easy to overlook those options...

Good luck on your project though.

ther was a prog for the momo afaik, it could work to (search for momo outgauge)

If that's the case then just read the docs that come with LFS (in the docs folder) - specifically what you care about is called OutGauge. You interface with it via a udp connection to localhost - depending on the language you'll use to make your mediating program you can find some ready libraries that wrap up the OutGauge output and handle the connections in the programming subforum.
