Debian have a nice system called popcon which essentially does this.
You voluntarily install the package ("popularity-content").  The
results are available here:

It's a bit different from (my understanding of) smolt, because it
tracks packages that are installed and uninstalled over the life of
the operating system.

virt-top is 'top' for virtual machines.  Tiny program with many
powerful monitoring features, net stats, disk stats, logging, etc.
