How would I create a program that does this?
I want to create a program that loads a webpage, checks a certain piece of text on the page, checks if the value is higher or lower than a specified value, then either reload the webpage or click a button, depending on if the value satisfies the given value. How would I go about doing this?

You mentioned Click a button, it means you request Graphic User Interface.
Microsoft C# and VB.Net will do.
>checks a certain piece of text
Regular expression can do the job well.
>if the value is higher or lower than a specified value
Declare a variable to check against the obtained value.
If the value is not equal specified value take the previous action again
In VB.Net create a button and named as btnProceed
Sub btnProceed_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnProceed.Click
Create a timer to click the button says 15 seconds later. Otherwise the button will be called the web site unstopable until the variable same as the value on the page.
