You can use the following api calls to get what you want in different ways, but none actually returns real ticks of the CPU clock. If they do it is more coincidental than anything else. You have Windows in mind I think:

getrusage() - check out struct rusage
gettimeofday() - very fine grained time
times() - same granularity as clock()
but gives system + user time for both parent and children.

Also, check out the CLOCK_REALTIME macro in time.h and
Code:
getconf _POSIX_CLOCKRES_MIN

for your system - this tells you the finest time resolution available on your system.
