You can see what they see using telnet (which incidentally suggests you can use a PHP script that opens a socket connection on port 80 to get the information). The commands in telnet are as follows:
telnet www.interjinn.com 80 HEAD / HTTP/1.0 <enter> That will give you the OS, web server, and any PHP information. The uptime I believe is determined by making these queries at various intervals.
