Is there a way to measure how much network traffic particular app generates?

nTop plus 100 others I'm sure.  I'm sure even with pf, ipfw, iptables, et al: there's a way to permit "everything" but do accounting.  I use ntop daily, but I'm just a novice at others so am just assuming there.

What type of data you want/need vs. how big of footprint/resource requirements will drive your decision.

For example skype, or web browser?
I know SysGuard in kde4 shows network traffic per interface at 
particular time. But I am interested in per-application stats.
