mysql client

Hi there

I am writing a script that will gather information on each machine and send it off to a central mysql database. I want to install the mysql client on every box so that I can just connect to a remote database and insert some data ... but it seems that all that is downloadable from the likes of blastwave and sunfreeware is the full blown mysql server+ client install

I dont need the whole thing just the client

Does anybody know the best way I can get the client without installing the whole thing and hacking around with it ?
