I think that nmap (if you have it installed) is better for that:
do shell script "/sw/bin/nmap -p 3031 192.168.1.1-255 | awk '/Interesting/ {
print $NF }'"
-->"(192.168.1.2):
(192.168.1.3):"
Or even telnet. Connecting to port 3031 should give you the response of:
"Connection closed by foreign host."
On Macs that have RAE enabled.
Those that don't should just time out.
