Getting a number from an external web site (using Invoke-WebRequest?)

$

Hi, I have no doubt that I am doing this ass about face (I only started learn PowerShell in a month of lunches last week) but I am trying to do the following.

To cut a long story short my masterplan is somehow to use SCOM - yes SCOM - to monitor surf reports.. My full (unlikely I suspect) quest is in the link below.

However at the moment I just want to know if its even possible to "pick off" a single number from a web page. In my case the height of the surf.

I have read quite a bit and got so far and have managed to pick out certain bits of text but dont seem to be able to get at one piece on the page. Am I even using the best command by using Invoke-WebRequest?
