VebParser plugin update times per second is tough, you have blocks poster. And if you can not make odnovlenie every second does not make sense to do this skin.

"Notes: Some caution should be used in determining how often to connect to a site with WebParser. Excessively accessing a site can cause your computer to be seen as an "attack" and result in being blocked. The UpdateRate option defaults to 600 as a safety measure. This should not be changed unless there is some reason to connect more or less often to the site."

What is the point of doing a timer which will be updated every 5 minutes?

You could simply read the current timers every 10 minutes or so to sync, and countdown independently. Using rainmeter update rates for timing is discouraged, because they may not always be accurate.
You could use a formula, that subtracts the time since you synced from the stored timer values. Lua would also be an option, for the same calculations.
