Oracle or 3rd party service for determining 'latest Java version'

Is there a service available that responds with the latest version of Java that's available?

I'm writing system check for an application that uses applets. As part of the check I'd like to inform users if a new version of Java is available for download. Is there any online service that simply responds with the version number for the latest Java version?

How about a different strategy of 'leave it to the manufacturer'?

The JRE is configured by default to be auto-updating to the latest version Oracle considers to be stable enough for general use. Best leave it to the auto-update feature.
