If you are giving one IP per site it's pretty simple: just have your
router account traffic by IP. You can do it on the server system
itself too with fake (accounting-only) iptables rules. See the
discussion here a couple of weeks ago for more details on how to
achieve that.
If you have IPs shared across multiple sites you need to do much more
work. Depending on the services you're offering your clients, you may
have to make separate summations from HTTP, HTTPS, SMTP, POP3, IMAP,
FTP and SSH logs (I wonder if ssh logs contain data transfers) and
summarise them into a single figure each month.

Apache Logfiles count outbound data, thats how I have been doing it.

I am sorry for the goof up in my earlier mail.
As suggested earlier, using router to count traffic is best way to go. If
you have a router which can't provide the accounting, you can consider
using a netflow probe.

Generally, ISP's use Netflow for accounting the IP traffic. This is the
standard feature in most routers.
Apage Logfiles does not give you full account.
As suggested earlier, using router to count traffic is best way to go. If
you don't have a router which can't provide the accounting, you can consider
using a netflow probe.

If it is a virtual hosting, then you have to rely on Apache logs as
suggested earlier.
You will find lots of tools to parse Apache logs and generate reports.
