Need help again altering output of script

Question

wget --output-document=- http://runescape.com/title.ws 2>/dev/null \
| grep PlayerCount \
| head -1l \
| sed 's/^[^>]*>//' \
| sed "s/currently.*$/$(date '+%m\/%d\/%Y %H:%m:%S')/" \
| cut -d">" -f 3,4 \
| sed 's/<\/span>//' \
| awk '{print $3, $4, $1, $2}'

Will output:

03/19/2012 18:03:58 123,822 people

Would anyone be able to help me rewrite this so the output looks like:

03/19/2012 18:03:58,123822,people

I need it this way because when I import it into googledocs, everything with a comma gets separated. Thanks if you help!

Um, I'm pretty sure you can replace all that with a single awk script... — Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams
