In this example php will execute shoutcast_v1.php once ever 3 minutes. You may change to your desire.

some systems have different settings when running php from the command line... so you may also try:

*/3 * * * * wget http://www.domain.com/twittercast/shoutcast_v1.php

man crontab for more info. man wget for more info

This script will work properly on a default LAMP stack.
