On the left side of the page, under the Calendar and Upcoming Events, there's a realm status block that
should be showing what the current state of the realm is.
I made an "oopsie" when I wrote that code, in that it would always generate the same file for the image. What would happen is that your web browser would see the same file name, and pull the file from its local cache instead of loading it from the website each time. So the site might be saying the realm is up, but its not, or vice versa.
I've since fixed that, but haven't really had a lot of time to test it.
While working on it, I also dropped the refresh timer from 10 minutes to 1 minute. This means that the site will check for an updated status from Blizz every minute instead of 10.
So if you see a broken image icon, or no image at all, let me know. If the site seems slow to load up a page, then you refresh, and its fine - let me know. That's an indication that the site is waiting for data from Blizz for the realm status.
