Since I have become scrum master I have reduced the number of standups to twice a week and my main question is "Is anything holding you up and what can we do to resolve this?". I then follow up with the right people and make sure this really gets resolved. Daily standups are way too much. There is not enough happening to warrant daily reporting to the whole team.
If people don't show I assume they are doing fine. But if they complain about a blocking issue weeks later I make it very clear that they had an obligation to bring this up earlier.
After the standup often a group will stay on and discuss what's going on in more detail. Some people are interested and some aren't interested so they don't have to join.
Works reasonably well for me.
