There are two to-be-published MIBs that may be of interest to you. The Application Management MIB provides statistics for application or service IO channels. On top of these channels, one can have transaction streams with transaction kind specific statistics. The WWW Services MIB provides a core set of statistics for Web services. It is written against an abstract document transfer protocol. Mappings to FTP and HTTP are defined in the document. Both MIBs have been approved by the IESG for publication as Prosposed Standards. They are currently sitting in the queue of the RFC editor waiting for publications as RFCs. Both MIBs are the product of the application management working group.
