As far as I know alerts process the last 5 minutes of data by default, so
it would be difficult to add the whole traffic. However, you could build a
backend plugin and each 5 minutes extract the volume of data, add it to the
previous value and store it somewhere (e.g. in a file). Check if it goes
over 50G (and if it's the first warning - so that you don't get spammed
with alerts) and send an email.
It's doable, but requires some work on your part (coding the plugin).
