you can have numbers, numbers and days or even just days and you can set different fonts, sizes and colors for numbers and days. there are a number of settings to adjust at the top of the lua script.

when you see colors represented for example in gimp they are given
as a value out of 255. In lua/cairo 255 would be 1. You can easily use
calculations in lua if you have your rgba numbers out of 255
as in the first setting below:
for alpha, the 4th number, 0=full transparent, 1=full opaque

It's hard to find something if you don't know what you're looking for.
I have a blog, it's mostly about conky and lua stuff... go
here.
