Wow!, you have hundreds of methods to track Bandwitdh usage :), I recommend
a few sites:

NTOP
MRTG
IPTRAF
http://www.taedium.net/rrd-iptraf/ To integrate RRD with iptraf
http://www.csl.sony.co.jp/person/kjc/kjc/software.html, some "traffic
shaping by TCP/UDP service" plotting tools

And of course RRD, you could integrate RRD (Round Robin Database, with graph
generation) with tools as TC, IPTraf or NTOP.

I hope you have enough info to play around ;)

Un saludo,
