Umm...  perhaps  I'm  missing  something  but  I  don't  see how one can
determine  "exactly  how  the  WAN  link is performing" from pinging and
tracerouteing.

I'd  much prefer looking at the output of a 'show interfaces' on a Cisco
router to see what the router thinks is going on. Of particular interest
would  be  reliability, transmit load, receive load, and all the various
error counters.

I concur, MRTG lets you track and graph anything that can be queried via
SNMP.
