Power monitor for NEMA L5-20?

I am trying to monitor how much power some racks are drawing.  They each
have one or two NEMA L5-20 (120V 20A twist-lock) outlets with their own
PDUs, so I'm not looking for PDUs with current monitoring.  What I need
is a single outlet device with a network connection for monitoring (SNMP
preferred).

Anybody aware of such a device?

I've heard of 1-wire monitoring systems before (for temperature,
humidity, etc.); is there a 1-wire device (e.g. a clamp-on device) that
can handle 20A?

Basically, right now, I have to go pull the cover off the conduit and
use a clamp-on ammeter to check the current.  It is a PITA and doesn't
really help me (no data over time, no graphs, etc.).
