An easier way to do this would be to just parse the results returned by the command "ifconfig". It contains the amount of bandwidth passed through each interface.
Although if you want more detailed information you could use iptables or have a "tcpdump" running in the background. Unfortunately I have tried only the first (easier and faster) way of obtaining the bandwidth, so if you do find some way of getting that from iptables, please let us know.
