this looks like exactly like nessus on unix or gfi languard for windows, nessus is freeware and updated frequently but will require unix host to setup, since you have coded in python i think that you are using unix you will find this system very good for baselining and other things
gfi langurard is shareware can be used for one month free of cost but it has the base line freature built in for the you will have to USD$ 99 to use. good but the nessus report | diff | viewer is a more flexible approach.

maybe something like if you network is fiarly stable ( not dhcp! )
cat "nessus report" | diff | email
