Assumin youn want to know how many packets/bytes come in/go out of eth0:
# ipchains -A input -i eth0
# ipchains -A output -i eth0
do stuff...
# ipchains -L input -v
# ipchains -L output -v
More on ipchains in the ipchains HOWTO and in the man page.
Note that you need at least kernel 2.1.103 for that to work, but there
are patches available for 2.0.x kernels (ipchains is the new firewalling
solution in the kernel, so you need to enable firewalling in the kernel
config to use the above, although you don't really firewall...)
