Hi Gerard,

You might want to have a look at the access.log files squid writes. In
there for each access you have a line with the number of bytes
transferred, and if the user needed to be authenticated for the access,
the userID (s)he used for authentication will be mentioned as well. Details
on the fields in accesslog.conf can be found on the squid homepage:
  http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/FAQ/FAQ-6.html
With this information it should be straightforward to create a python or
perl script totalling transferred bytes per user.
You might also want to check whether SARG (http://web.onda.com.br/orso/)
fits your needs.

Cheers,

Kurt
