[idea] Bitcoind meter

[gweedo]

I would love to see something where maybe I can run on a vps and have my bitcoind connect to it like a proxy and it meters how much bandwidth I send out and get. Also it be great if this was like modulator and someone can write and see which block is getting request the most. What peers have I been connected too and how long? Different metrics would be great!

Please make it open source, or if you know an open source program that will do this and I just have to write some bitcoin code to have it hook up too it.

The first part of it (measuring bandwidth) would be easy with MRTG or RRDTool or similar checking a specific port.
