Monitoring disk usage

I've seen and experimented with the disk directive in snmpd.conf but
it's not quite doing what I need and I'm hoping someone can suggest a
way to use it or another method to accomplish what I need.

I have several programs which log to /var/log.  Generally, there are
links there that point to /dev/null so I can enable logging by removing
the link and restarting the program.  But if I ship a system without the
links or add a new log source and don't create the link or something, I
could end up with an ever-growing log file.  

What I'd like to do is be able to remotely determine if any file in
/var/log is growing.  I suppose I could have a startup script which
figured out the current usage on /, subtracted from 100, and put that in
as a percentage in snmpd.conf but that's kind of indirect and awkward. 
Is there a better way?
