It is fairly easy to get bandwidth and hit rate graphs out of mrtg, I use
these scripts:

# for traffic
#!/bin/sh
awk -F '[ \t\n\:]+' -- '/eth0/ {print $3;print $11;}' < /proc/net/dev
uptime
hostname -f

# For apache
#!/bin/sh
echo 0
wget -q -O - http://127.0.0.1/server-status?auto | awk -- '/Total Accesses:/ {print $3*100}'
uptime
hostname -f

And invoke them from mrtg like:

Target[master.eth0]: `/usr/local/bin/mrtg-ip-acct`
