This is not part of Ganglia standard metrics, and I don't know if there's any 
plugin that does is already - have you searched https://github.com/ganglia/ ?
If you don't find something, I think you can try in two ways:
* Ganglia can get sFlow metrics. If you have a switch that connects the two 
PCs, you may be able to get host-to-host traffic information from it via sFlow.
* if you're running Linux on one of the two, you can add "null" rules in 
IPtables just to count packets and bytes (see the output of iptables -L -v) and 
write a plugin or gmetric to feed that information to Ganglia
If you manage in either way, please share, it could be useful to have.

Cheers,
