Here is the eclipse track data from NASA. This is an HTML page with double-space-delimited data that's tabular but with some noise. It's highly procedural to turn this into a working CZML document, so it would be reasonable to build a parser for such pages.
Parsers for third party websites are time bombs that are gauranteed to break before bit rot sets in. There's currently an inquiry out to Fred Espenak, webmaster of the site, to see if more easily parsable files or streams of the same data are available.
