If you can do this, why not write yourself a little script to do it 
automatically for you? Save yourself some money, fine-tune it to how 
you like. Looking at how MRTG does it could give you some pointers, 
or you might want to build on it - no need to reinvent the wheel (at 
least that's what Rodolfo and Thom keep telling me).

If you want something quicker than that, TrafficLight is available 
from Jens (www.raqsupport.net) and it gives you full bandwidth on 
email, ftp, and web. However often you want (cron jobs are wonderful 
things) daily, as well as "yesterday", "this week", "last week", and 
monthly stats. By IP, by domain... it's just a great little set of 
scripts and not very expensive at all.
