I think you'll find that there's a few that are open (e.g. Abovenet 
http://www.above.net/traffic/ and ourselves [although we're not US based] 
http://support.bbc.co.uk/support/mrtg/internet/). A lot of the big 
corporates consider it confidential information (it gives away how 
good/bad they are or something).
