Ok, so I've figured out what its purpose is.

Are there other problems with this script?  Does it not pull out the rule names correct all the time or something?
Whatproblem was Matt having with it?
 

I think rewriting from scratch is overkill, unless this script is just failing.  The code to pull the rule names out is
abit complex, and it seems to work, so I'd rather not touch it.
 

Are there other things you wished this script did?  (reports, counts, etc)
