nmap

I want to add to the network section of conky a list of all hosts and ips for my network.

However I do not know how to format the output in a way I like.

I want

Live Hosts However this is on the bottom line of nmap's output)
host (ip)
host (ip)
and on and on...

I think there should be a max of 7 on my network. How can I do this? The output of nmap -sP 192.168.1.0/24 looks nothing like what I want though it does have all the parts, just in the wrong order.
