	Please ask your vendors to implement the
bgp mib v2 draft.. or at least the received routes info.
(draft-ietf-idr-bgp4-mibv2-02.txt)
	They already display it in their various CLIs.  (juniper+cisco for
example).
	They have the number available.  it should be easy to reveal these
in snmp for reliable accurate polling.
