I can't think of a way to do this directly using tcpdump. Netdude has a
traffic analyzer plugin that gives you protocol usage statistics easily
-- have a look at http://netdude.sf.net. Here's some sample output:

# IP PROTOCOL ANALYSIS:
# =====================
#
# Aggregates packets and bytes per IP protocol payload type.
# proto number -- #packets -- #bytes -- %packets -- %bytes

1       2122    1831886 11.26   27.54
17      3948    617773  20.95    9.29
6       12773   4203113 67.79   63.18

(IP protocol 6 is TCP) If this is what you need, you're welcome to get
in touch and I'll give you more details.
 
Hope this helps,
Christian.
