Simple server that lists host IPs like FPS

I seem to remember seeing some matchmaking/leaderboard services that let you do this for free (or at least very cheap) for indie developers. But an internet search just now didn't turn up anything promising :-(.

You could just use a cheap or even free webhost, it is pretty easy to load data from websites or post data to them using .Net.

If you are going to selfhost it i'd recommend building a cheap dedicated linux server for the task. a raspberry pi could get the job done for 35 bucks, as long as you don't have too many servers to keep track of (or too many players trying to get a server list at the same time)

There are also $5/mo VPS available, which may make more sense and is a lot less risky than using your home network to host a public server (even if it's isolated, it's still using your main internet line, and you don't want random people and a lot of bots to start interfering with your daily internet activities by using up your cable line, especially if you have a bandwidth cap)
