For your own personal records, you could look into using vnstat or nyx.
I use a cron job to update my relay's webpage[1] with some traffic stats
from vnstati, a tool that makes images using data from vnstat. Example
here[2] (scroll down). This is just for my own fun, though.

I presume whoever runs tshirt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx is going to use the Relay
Search tool on metrics. Check out the sources webpage[3] for more info
on how that data is collected.

For anyone else interested in these t-shirts, see this webpage for more
information[4].
