does the bot monitor the thread with all the replies? how does it cope with multiple pages? does it know what updates it has already one?

No, it rebuilds the whole page each time it checks. It's faster than checking whether the entry already exists in the database.

multiple pages should be no problem, but it isn't implemented yet.

mbot beta at work in this thread.

Basic stuff seems to work. : ) It can parse the results and edit the first thread automaticly.
