I was pretty much thinking the same, get a switched/metered outlet PDU. APC, ServerTech, et al have them, then daisy chain something like a Dell AP6015 off the outlet. No clue about NEC/local laws, but the Dells are pretty much setup for that type of setup.

APC does make some 'half rack' PDU's that take a C20 inlet so they could hang off a C19 outlet on another PDU: http://www.apc.com/resource/include/techspec_index.cfm?base_sku=AP8858&displayList=ALL&page_type=displaybasic&printer_friendly=yes http://www.apc.com/resource/include/techspec_index.cfm?base_sku=AP7821&displayList=ALL&page_type=displaybasic&printer_friendly=yes
On the software side, just use a "master" PDU with metering. These "sub" ones are also metered but you would want to look at the total utilization on the "master".
No comment if its to code...

Well, I was kinda thinking this would turn out to be a dumb question / have an obvious answer. Apparently not. But it seems I can't go buy a solution either. I guess there isn't much of a market (though I am just talking software - maybe someone could make an update :) ).
