Nope... The packets need to be sealed back together, at that point the data is denormalized and you can't measure how much it "actually" counted.

Huh? I happen to run my own intercepting proxy which rewrites HTML pages, and if I wanted to, I could easily track exactly how many bytes came in and how many bytes went out.

This is not a technical impossiblity, I'm sorry if you're invested emotionally in it being impossible.
