I don't like iframes either, but it is a lot simpler to set up than xml-rpc. Allthough, I would prefer a xmlrpc solution, or both.

It looks like with the suggestions for XML-RPC calls would allow the modulecheck to be run with the cron hook. That way, everytime an admin looks at their modules page, it wouldn't be a call to drupal.org, like an iframe would.  Also, I'm not crazy about iframes, but I could in be a minority on that point.

What about simply having an iframe to
https://drupal.org/modulecheck/modulename, which returns a "You're
running the latest version" normally, or a button saying "click here
to upgrade" otherwise. The button essentially pionts to the changelog
/ install notes. (later, the button can point to the installer which
autoupgrades stuff).
