It's worth mentioning that this only works on Linux systems or systems 
that have the /proc/stat file. If you want real CPU statistics on a 
generic UNIX machine download and install Net-SNMP then probe the System 
Stats MIB as follows:

Target[localhost_cpu0]: ssCpuRawUser.0&ssCpuRawUser.0:public at localhost + 
ssCpuRawSystem.0&ssCpuRawSystem.0:public at localhost + 
ssCpuRawNice.0&ssCpuRawNice.0:public at localhost
MaxBytes[localhost_cpu0]: 100
Options[localhost_cpu0]: growright, nopercent, noo
Title[localhost_cpu0]: CPU Utilization
YLegend[localhost_cpu0]: Utilization (%)
Unscaled[localhost_cpu0]: ymwd
ShortLegend[localhost_cpu0]: %
LegendI[localhost_cpu0]: Utilization
LegendO[localhost_cpu0]:
Legend1[localhost_cpu0]: Utilization
Legend2[localhost_cpu0]:
Legend3[localhost_cpu0]: Max Utilization
Legend4[localhost_cpu0]:
PageTop[localhost_cpu0]: <h1>CPU Utilization</h1>

You'll also need:

LoadMIBs: /path/to/SNMPv2-SMI.txt
LoadMIBs: /path/to/UCD-SNMP-MIB.txt


good luck.
