I have an external script and would like to be able to control the threshold

In later versions (Xymon, not Hobbit) you can alarm on RRD values, so
if you're graphing the values being tested in your script then you can
set the thresholds.  This is done in analysis.cfg, which is what
replaced hobbit-clients.cfg after the product name change.
Seems as if down the road I might be able to use this for the question I
asked about a month ago (in the "conn" test, there is a graph for ping
response time but no way to alarm on a high value as the test is
written). Would others agree or am I mistaken?
