IP traffic accuracy


I have been using IPTraf (slax module) and was wondering how accurate the figures it gives are. It seems to be rather higher than other traffic monitors. Comments?

Also, is there any similar monitor that can report the number of bytes actually received - minus the headers - meaning the actual packet data content only?

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and Eid Mubarrak to everyone.
