No.  The Net-SNMP client tools don't do any caching.
They simply report whatever information is supplied by the agent.

No - it's more likely that the agent software running on the hardware
that you're querying is only sampling the data at 1s intervals.   Or
possibly (though perhaps less liklely) that the lower-level
statistics-gathering API only runs at this rate.

You'd really need to speak to the people that supplied the boxes concerned.
