First calculate the ratio (in a CDEF) then take the percentage?

That's right, because whatever amount of data they've sent, it will be
100% if they're the only one talking !?

Even if they used the amazing amount of just one byte, that single one
byte is 100% of the total amount of bytes sent during that night.

So, if that's not your problem, what problem *do* you try to solve?
