Automated Usage Script without usermanager
Summary
I wrote a usage tracking script based on the original Automated Billing Script The way I run it is using a Mikrotik box setup to pass everything through transparently then I generated a Queue per IP address to keep track of the usage. On my test box (A PowerRouter 732) I currently have 3 class C blocks passing through with only 3% cpu (Multi CPU enabled).
==Todo==: I plan on giving this script the ability to backup to a file on the mikrotik so it will count both data in the queue currently + data usage saved in the file (in case you lose power to the device or have to restart it at any time)
I also plan on modifying the monthend script further so that it can only be triggered on the last hour of the last day of the month. This means you could then run the usage script hourly to get more frequent updates.
See below the script for details on how it works.
The Scripts
Overseer
Like the automated billing, this also has a calling script "Overseer"
:global found
/system script run monthend
:if ([$found] = "true") do={ /system script run monthlyreport; :log info "--Completed Monthly Report--"}
:if ([$found] = "false") do={ /system script run usagewarning; :log info "--Completed Usage Report--"}
Monthend
If it is the end of the month, the Monthly report must be run and counters reset, rather than the usage report. This finds our if it is end of month or not.

Usage Report
The main usage report, takes the name of each queue and looks firstly for a hint that any data is contained in this. I have used ! to seperate the initial data block so If it finds a ! it will treat this name as data.
The data is then broken up from a name like this: Any Site name!50#info@yourcompany.com!00 this then gives us $sitename (descriptive name) $gigs (gigabyte download limit) $email (address to email report to) $lastwarning (previous usage warning level)
If you just name a script without any ! in it, this will be ignored in the processing (useful for naming devices without reporting)

#Script based on Automated billing script at http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/AutomatedBilling
#Details:
#This script checks all current simple queues and using values stored in the queue name will allow you keep track of usage by each site
#The details stored in the queue are broken down and used to determine if a user should also be sent an usage warning at 50 75 90 and 100%
#You can create/modify a new entry as long as you follow this format
#1) If you just want to name an entry you may do so like "XYZ Router" in the queue name
#2) If you want to determine a data limit, enter it like "sitename!gigabytelimit#emailaddress!00"
#Breaking it down, sitename is.. a descriptive name, gigabyte limit is the monthy limit, email address is the address you want notified, 00 is the last warning level-set this to 00 when creating a new site.

Final Notes
For those new to scripts, you can copy and paste these into winbox, but make sure that you at least remove the starting spacing from the comment lines (ones with #) if you don't they aren't treated as comments and will cause the script to error.
