PyOverflow: Account statistics for Stack Overflow for Ubuntu!

Question

I was bored, and I wanted to play with the API, so I came up with this little script:

It's coded in Python and has only a single image dependency.

Here is a screenshot:

Here's the source code (it's tiny, so I have no reason to host it on an external site):

import urllib, gzip, cStringIO, simplejson, pynotify, gtk

url = 'http://api.stackoverflow.com/1.0/users/464744' # I would change this, unless you want to monitor my account ;)
connection = urllib.urlopen(url)
response = connection.read()
connection.close()

info = simplejson.load(gzip.GzipFile(fileobj=cStringIO.StringIO(response)))['users'][0]

pynotify.init("PyOverflow")

message = pynotify.Notification("Stack Overflow", "Reputation: " + str(info['reputation']) + "\n" +
                                                  "Number of questions: " + str(info['question_count']) + "\n" +
                                                  "Number of answers: " + str(info['answer_count']) + "\n" +
                                                  "Number of up votes: " + str(info['up_vote_count']) + "\n" +
                                                  "Number of down votes: " + str(info['down_vote_count']) + "\n" +
                                                  "Accept rate: " + str(info['accept_rate']) + "%")

message.set_icon_from_pixbuf(gtk.gdk.pixbuf_new_from_file('icon.png'))
message.show()

And here's the image the script would be looking for:

As it took me a while to figure out the JSON and API part, I might make a Python API for this, just for fun.

Any suggestions are welcome (don't worry, I will make this thing a bit more versatile)!
