What does "periodically" mean? Once every five minutes? Do you really need real time data? If you followed the installation instructions carefully, you created a dedicated user who owns Mailman files and directories and can execute the command cited above. Simply execute the command as this user, write the output to a defined location and then have your PHP script read that file and display it. Judging from the error message above, you are running MacOS X which supports the traditional Unix "cron" daemon as well as a new service called "launchd". You can use both of them to create the required output periodically. If you did not create a dedicated user for Mailman during installation then I'm out of ideas.
