Another possibility to get total upslope contributing area for each cell is the flow accumulation output of r.watershed and r.terraflow. Upslope contributing areas for arbitrary points can be determined with r.stream.basins, or one point after another with r.water.outlet. These modules use drainage direction produced by r.watershed as input.
