Every Wednesday at 7am the script queries the astro-ph online archive and extracts the total number of abstracts for the last 12 months and the number of new abstracts this week.

If the script finished parsing the astro-ph document abnormally the number of new abstracts is set to -1.

The type of search is different for different keywords. Expect longer connection times in case of the full record search.
