Try aubiotrack (part of Aubio, http://aubio.org/), or use the simple
host included with the Vamp plugin SDK (see http://vamp-plugins.org)
together with a suitable analysis plugin
(http://vamp-plugins.org/download.html).

Note that Ardour's Rhythm Ferret also uses Vamp plugins internally,
and they can be used in Audacity too.
