Use "vnstat". Once installed, you need to generate the interface's database
once by using "vnstat -u -i ppp0". And it will keep monitoring the data usage
till you reset the statistics(at the end of month perhaps)
sample output would be like:
------------------------------
$ sudo vnstat
rx / tx / total / estimated
eth0:
yesterday 1829 MB / 1174 MB / 3004 MB
today 3249 MB / 3132 MB / 6381 MB / 7893 MB
ppp0:
yesterday 231.99 MB / 132.73 MB / 364.73 MB
today 1022 MB / 909.41 MB / 1932 MB / 2388 MB
