Hmm, interesting.

I'm also looking at doing a web-scraping project with Node.js.

I was going to go with CasperJS (http://casperjs.org/), which seems fairly active and is based on PhantomJS.

Their quickstart guide is actually creating a scraper:

However, I'm wondering how this (Cheerio) compares - anybody have any experiences?
