Is there an online tool to compile LESS?

I'm trying to use LESS in my webpage, but am having trouble compiling it. It's built to work on ruby, which I don't have permission to install on my pc. Is there an online tool for this compilation?

I know that lessphp exists, but I can't find the demo on their site any longer.

To summarise, I'm looking for a quick and dirty solution to compiling LESS to test my stylesheets locally. Ideally, this would integrate with Microsoft Expression Web 4 (hooray for dreamspark), but I'd be perfectly happy with a "copy, paste, compile, copy, paste" web interface.

Does such an interface exist?

I don't want to advertise my own stuff, but it answers the question and it's open source! I made this about two weeks ago - The Online LESS Converter.

I added a larger syntax highlighting editor and compiler to the lessphp page: http://leafo.net/lessphp/editor.html
