Correct.

As the function you ask for does not exist built into Squid something
needs to be written to implement it. In this case what is required is
a small program which can compare two integers..

This simple shell script will probably work for most purposes

#!/bin/sh
while read length max; do
  if [ "$length" -gt "$max" ]; then
    echo ERR
  else
    echo OK
  fi
done
