| In that case, sample/count outbound traffic volumes by

| import policy based on the top N entries which shares the traffic by
| tweaking some other attribute to avoid the last-resort tie-break.

| Or bypass the measurement part, and make wild guesses about where your
| traffic is going, and apply an import policy based on that. Either way,
| lather, rinse, repeat.

And products from folks like Proficient Networks and Routescience can
automate the process for you.
