I believe you could accomplish what you want with iptables.  IE Match
the IP address with an iptables rule.  The rule has counters for the
packets and bytes.

I believe there are tools / projects that provide iptables accounting.

Hope that helps.

The only problem being that last time I looked at ntop is does take away
a
chunk of CPU time from your server (unless you have it on a separate
box).
