Wouldn't there be some commandline utility from the FLEXnet package that you can use, e.g. to query the number of currently in-use licenses ? As long as it
contacts the network daemon it can be used to check that the daemon is running, and then you can probably make a custom test wrapper around the
command line tool, and generate the Hobbit status based on this.

Now there is a working version 1.0 of the Hobbit Monitor module for FLEXnet License Manager at The Shire:

Thanks to everybody for the help, hints and comments.
