Web-scraping using Python: Checking change in XML structure everyday

I would like to implement a web scrapper wherein I would like to get the XML of a page and store that into some data structure (considering dictionary in python) and then check for any change in the structure of the page, like a change of any div or any attribute inside the div block.

I do not want to check for the change of contents but just the overall structure of the page.

Since I am new to web-scrapping, I would like to ask what should be the best way to implement this?

Thanks
