It depends on how accurate you need the information to be and for what purpose. Using the Content-Length request header will give you an exact figure of how much data was uploaded. (warning: Don't confuse this with the Content-Length reply header..) Using the complete request size including header will give you information on how much the upstream link is used as part of the users web access for all traffic, including uploads. The headers are not insignificant in normal web traffic, but is also not part of the data uploaded but part of the HTTP protocol. For larger requests the header information is insignificant.
