You can get monitor stats directly from the following entries:
cn=monitor,cn=ldbm database,cn=plugins,cn=config
cn=monitor,cn=YOUR_BACKEND,cn=ldbm database,cn=plugins,cn=config
I.e.
ldapsearch -xLLL -D 'cn=Directory Manager' -W -b 'cn=monitor,cn=ldbm
database,cn=plugins,cn=config'
ldapsearch -xLLL -D 'cn=Directory Manager' -W -b
'cn=monitor,cn=userroot,cn=ldbm database,cn=plugins,cn=config'
