What would be the fastest way to find out a persons status (repeatedly, so maybe know their realtime stats several times per second) without hitting torns request limit?

 

Example: if i want to hit someone in war whos similar stats to me, im out of hosp and theyre in hosp. whoever starts the fight first will kill the other, since we both low hp and 1shottable. Also, once one of us starts the fight the other cant start on the other or use meds. So its a race to be the first to attack, a race where they have the advantage because i dont know when theyd leave hosp

 

By spamming refresh on their attack page, i can obviously see pretty quickly when they leave hosp. However, torns request limits means that after 100 refreshes id be blocked from accessing tor a minute.

 

Ive tried using api keys, but for some reason through api the information arrives a couple seconds late. I also tried watching DOM changes with a script (legally, while on the profile page) but i couldnt get it to work.

 

Is there some way of, through script or api usage, know within a few milliseconds when a person has left/entered hospital or travelled? What about last action updates? how, if possible, can i know those almost instantly?
