Hi Sigurður, 
please have a look at e.g. :
http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit-cgi/bb-hostsvc.sh?CLIENT=voodoo.hswn.dk 

In the [netstat] section is a TcpExt section. 
It contains a number of retransmission counts and I guess it is 
the sum of those counts that is graphed. 
The important thing is that it is packet counts that is graphed.
