v2.54beta30-2 can be installed using fink, for example. Portsniffer is working as advertised. Friendly but too expensive.

does exactly as it says. $15 is high for very limited scope of functionality in my opinion. If it was scriptable via AppleScript so that I could set up some automated logic to handle various situations, then the price could be justified in my opinion. Especially if the author included some of the obvious scripts with the product to save a buyers time.

v2.53 is a UNIX app so it is not an OSX application as such.
