Hello Adrian,
thank you for your post.
Did you review the following?
Most results/readings provided via the API can be queried directly via the built-in HTTP XML/REST Value Sensor. I'll provide the links/replies to the individual questions below:
Is the Server UP
You can use a HTTP, HTTP Advanced or even SSL Certificate Sensor to check whenever your Core Server's web-interface is reachable.
Last check from any Sensor / Last Data
This is "somewhat" possible, the api/getsensordetails.xml?id=sensorid and api/table.xml?content=sensors queries can get you the <lastcheck> value, but the result is provided in the TDateTime format and as a string, which makes further processing this value not straightforward. Example output looks like this:
<lastcheck>
<![CDATA[40511.5407662153[13 m 55 s ago]]]>
</lastcheck>
Number of Sensor with state Error, Warning, OK
