Also look into the 'gauge' option in the MRTG config file.

Also look at my http://stats.inorganic.org site, where I use MRTG with
RRDTOOL (and Routers2 and some gathering instrumentation I wrote myself) to
track, in addition to SNMP data, things like temperature and humidity next
to my server, DNS and HTTP requests, and overall mail traffic.  It's not a
tutorial site (you don't get to see how I do it, but I'll answer questions
if you have them), but it's at least a proof of concept :)
