I monitor our 800's/8100's with Cricket for trending... They support
ProxyMIB in addition to their own hardware specific OIDs. The complete
mibs are available through WebPower but here are the interesting OID's I
use. proxyClientHttpInKbs/OutKbs are client traffic from the perspective
of the proxy --

OID     proxyMemUsage                   .1.3.6.1.3.25.17.1.1
OID     proxyStorge                     .1.3.6.1.3.25.17.1.2

OID     proxyCpuLoad                    .1.3.6.1.3.25.17.3.1.1
OID     proxyNumObjects                 .1.3.6.1.3.25.17.3.1.2

OID     proxyClientsHttpRequests        .1.3.6.1.3.25.17.3.2.1.1
OID     proxyClientsHttpHits            .1.3.6.1.3.25.17.3.2.1.2
OID     proxyClientsHttpErrors          .1.3.6.1.3.25.17.3.2.1.3
OID     proxyClientsHttpInKbs           .1.3.6.1.3.25.17.3.2.1.4
OID     proxyClientsHttpOutKbs          .1.3.6.1.3.25.17.3.2.1.5

OID     proxyServerHttpRequests         .1.3.6.1.3.25.17.3.2.2.1
OID     proxyServerHttpErrors           .1.3.6.1.3.25.17.3.2.2.2
OID     proxyServerHttpInKbs            .1.3.6.1.3.25.17.3.2.2.3
OID     proxyServerHttpOutKbs           .1.3.6.1.3.25.17.3.2.2.4

OID     proxyHTTPMissSvcTime            .1.3.6.1.3.25.17.3.3.1.3.1
OID     proxyHTTPHitSvcTime             .1.3.6.1.3.25.17.3.3.1.4.1
OID     proxyHTTPNhSvcTime              .1.3.6.1.3.25.17.3.3.1.5.1

If you have not already done so, you'll need to enable SNMP on the
Bluecoat box and set a read community string (Maintenance -> SNMP by
https or conf t -> snmp by console, under SGOS4)
