Are you needing Windows or Unix boxes?  If Unix you are in luck, you are 
probably already collecting mem_free in vmstat.rrd, in fact if you are 
looking at Solaris, there is already a standard graph definition 
(vmstat6) you can configure in TRENDS.  This doesnt work óut of the 
box'on the vmstat.rrd collected by linux servers, but you could probably 
create a version that gives you something.
