Collecting SAR data can be done with Sysstat, Atsar, Atop, Dstat or Collectl. Most of these tools (can) run in the background unattended ensuring stats are saved continuously. Where necessary they will contain (separate) tools or switches with which you can extract stats from the (binary) logs based on whatever criteria are available to you, so it kind of depends on the tool you use what and how you'll extract data from it.
Of course you're free to reinvent the wheel again if you "don't like" existing wheels.

roundup-ctl
ROUNDUP-CTL(1) General Commands Manual ROUNDUP-CTL(1)
NAME
roundup-ctl - roundup server control interface
SYNOPSIS
roundup-ctl [options] command
DESCRIPTION
roundup-ctl is a front end to the roundup server. It is designed to help the administrator control the functioning of the roundup server
daemon. This script mimics most of the behaviour of a regular init script, but works as a front end to the runit package to control the
roundup service. So, in order to use this, you need the runit package, too. Please note that using this script is mostly incompatible with
having roundup controlled by runit directly in the form of automatic startup.
The roundup-ctl script returns a 0 exit value on success, and >0 if an error occurs. For more details, view the comments in the script.
OPTIONS
-d directory
Use given directory as service directory.
COMMANDS
The command can be any one or more of the following options:
start If the roundup server is not runinng, start it. If the server stops, restart it. stop Stops the roundup server. status Print sta-
tus of the roundup server.
