Amount of Data Written to a Given Share

What is the best way to obtain the amount of data written to a particular share over the course a given time?  I have access to the API and the isi statistics CLI but cannot determine that best way to gather this data.  I see the data points are available but would prefer to avoid having the do the math to find the real numbers myself. 

Please advise...

    You should try and setup and advisory quota for that path & then use API for quota to track it.

    SmartQuotas Uncovered - Part 1

    With SmartQuotas, there are three main ways of tracking and reporting resource usage:

    • Physical space. This is simple to track, since it includes all the data and metadata resources used, including the data-protection overhead. The quota system is also able to track the difference before and after the operation.
    • Logical space. This is slightly more complex to calculate and track, but provides the user with a more comprehensible means of understanding their usage.
    • File accounting. This is the most straightforward, since whenever a file is added to a domain, the file count is incremented.
