Perhaps you'll find useful to take a look at http://www.net-snmp.org.
The whole SNMP suite is packaged for Debian, check snmp, snmpd, libsnmp 
and libsnmp-dev, and maybe other packages I don't remember now.
IIRC, they have an SNMP based implementation of netstat. Check also 
tkmib, which allows to browse the mibs and query the values from a nice 
GUI.

For better results, you can try asking this in the net-snmp project 
mailing lists.

Good luck !!
