Of course there's always collectl which essentially replaces all the tools mentioned in the previous post. On the other hand if you're looking for some sort of API to write your own, just look at /proc on linux. Of course the documentation is poor and you may have to look at a lot of source code. Since these is the way the other tools get at their data at least you know which source to read

pxslcc
pxsl-tools(1) General Commands Manual pxsl-tools(1)
NAME
pxslcc - PXSL to XML converter
SYNOPSIS
pxslcc [options] file
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the pxslcc command.
PXSL is a convenient shorthand for writing markup-heavy XML documents. It provides an alternative denotation for XML that focuses on the
mark-up instead of the text, making handling mark-up heavy XML documents easier. Also, PXSL makes use of element defaults that can act as
shortcuts or even as macros.
pxslcc is a program that takes a PXSL source file and any macro definitions and generates an XML file.
OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below. For a complete description, see the README file.
-i[NUM] --indent[=NUM]
Re-indent XML using NUM spaces per nesting level.
-h, --header
Insert an comment into the generated XML to warn against editing the XML file directly and to recommend editing the original PXSL
source file instead.
-x, --xslt
Add default element defaults for generating XSLT files.
-aFILE, --add=FILE
Add the given defaults file.
--export
Export (print) all of the active defaults.
--dump Dump internal parse format (for debugging).
--help Print a synopsis of command line options.
-v, --version
Prints out the program version.
SEE ALSO
For more information, see the README file, that can be found on Debian systems at /usr/share/doc/pxsl-tools/README.gz or visit the home
page at http://community.moertel.com/ss/space/pxsl.
