FWIW... you can do 'rndc status' and bind will dump interesting titbits into 
/var/named/named.stats like...

+++ Statistics Dump +++ (1045717217)
success 15468210
referral 514097
nxrrset 2442659
nxdomain 2842472
recursion 131
failure 7791

... which should be fairly easy to parse with perl (certinaly much easier
than prasing tcpdump) and make mrtg counters out of.
