For the source, check this out:

Host toklab.ics.osaka-u.ac.jp

    Location: /X/X.V11R5/mit/demos
      DIRECTORY drwxrwxr-x        512  Aug 27 1991  xeyes
    Location: /X/X.V11R5/mit/demos/xeyes
           FILE -r--r--r--       4112  Jul 19 1991  xeyes.c
           FILE -r--r--r--       1463  Jul 30 1991  xeyes.man

The source for Xload is on export.lcs.mit.edu in
/pub/R5untarred/mit/clients/xload, and it includes several ways to get
the current load average on some systems.  The way that I do it (on
Linux) is via the /proc filesystem.  Makes the code much less
susceptible to change with kernel revisions.
