Nice page :)  I think might have to mirror it also.

There is lots of stuff out there as you can see from the page above.  I 
have limited experience here but I have played with Argus/Flowscan.  You 
can get Argus info here:

But this might be overkill for what you asked for.  I've got some simple 
graphs setup here if you wanna take a look:

It does take a bit of manual configuration though.  I set it up a while ago 
and haven't really messed with it since.
