Raj,
 
I'm afraid I don't understand. Was that incorrect in some way? The alert log will contain information when the redo logs switch, e.g.

Thread 1 advanced to log sequence 38452
  Current log# 3 seq# 38452 mem# 0: /x12/oradata/IDW1/redo03a.dbf
  Current log# 3 seq# 38452 mem# 1: /x22/oradata/IDW1/redo03b.dbf

This will help identify the frequency of log switch and an indicator to the amount of redo generated. The question was how to estimate the amount of archive log generation and that was one way. So, is that wrong? Please do correct me if you think so. Of course the information can be readily obtained from v$log_history; but then again, that's another way, not the only way.
