That looks odd.

1. Is that volume of traffic reasonable for your site?

2. Are those figures consistent with your access logs?

3. I'd expect incoming to be a lot less than outgoing for a typical site.

That sort of traffic level is going to cost $$$ pretty much anywhere.
For example, the bandwidth alone is going to cost upwards of $70k/month
with Amazon EC2.

I know it isn't the question you asked but I'd be looking hard at the
traffic to see if a) those numbers are correct and b) someone didn't do
something REALLY silly that is causing excessive traffic.
