As in you just want a bottom line number of bytes in/out?  Try
something like (in perl5):

open(DT,"rrdtool fetch $rrdname MAX -e $NOW -s $START |");
while(($time, $data) = split /\:/,<DT>,2){
  chomp $data;
  ($IN, $OUT)=split " ",$data;
  $in_total += $IN; $out_total +=$OUT;
}

I'm not sure of your exact needs and format, you may have a multiplier
that you need to put in there, or other funkyness, but this should be
a decent starting point.  There is an RRDs::fetch perl function, but I've
found it very hard to use, and this should be efficient enough.
