There's something  called the Python Routing Toolkit  from sprint labs
that gives you  a python class called  Bgp that you can use  to make a
session with a router and recieve updates parsed into a dictionary. If
you glue that  to some other classes/scripts/whatever you  can do real
time graphing and calculations. It  would be easier than hacking zebra
to do this, I think.
