HostAP station signal strengths

Hello all,

I want to look at building a web interface for viewing statuses of
my HostAP, and looked at the specific station MAC addresses listed
in /proc/net/hostap/wlan0/.  Is there documentation as to what most
of this means?  Some are obvious, such as:

supported_rates=1Mbps 2Mbps 5.5Mbps 11Mbps

But some are less than obvious, such as these:

aid=1
flags=0x0003 AUTH ASSOC
capability=0x11
jiffies=158012061
last_rx: silence=170 signal=201 rate=10

I'm really interisted in all of the data, to work it into the web
interface.

Thanks!

- Jason
