I can pull stats (such as in/outbound octets) from my router, but I need to be able to fire an action when bandwidth usage ((difference between two values)/time) goes above a certain amount. I would also like to be able to record that bandwidth usage number and graph it (like MRTG)

How can I possibly do this with HostMonitor? It does everything else I need except for the above...if I can get it to do it I am ready to buy!

HostMonitor 3.32 can check difference between two values ("changes by" option). You know time interval between two consecutive tests, so you can calculate ((difference between two values)/time) value. Probably in next version will be implemented "changes by .. per sec" option.
About graph.. I don't when it will be possible.
