Well, unless it's a heavy site and imposes some pretty strict
constraints on your hardware platform, charging it via bandwidth
utilization seems reasonable.  I think at this point most -- if not
all -- ISPs have a vehicle for charging the customer for "excess"
bandwidth utilization.  Provided that you have a way to enforce it,
that would probably be sufficient.  If it's not, you may want to look
at your bandwidth policies.
