I am working on 802.11e as well.
1. For me the easiest answer was to not worry about the ns trace file,
and create my own. I count throughput at the MAC level by printing bytes
sent during the simulation, and use a perl script to get the statistics
afterward.
2. There are some tools to help you do this.

I am using an H.264 profile, but accuracy isn't important so I just used
a mostly equivalent pareto VBR source.
I hope this helps!
