I came across few utilities written in Java that compute disk usage.  How do they compiute it then?
 
[ArW]  they are making native calls to the operating system.   A classic trick is if you are on UNIX to make a call to Runtime.exec("df") parsing the output.
 
Or you could develop some native libraries for each OS your wishing to support.
