How to calculate Job bandwidth consumption?

Hey there,

if I have a job (or simply a request) that fetches resources from another website, say another API or RSS feed or even a full HTML page. How can I calculate how much bandwidth is used?

I wouldn't want to blow up my hosting bandwidth, so if I can calculate that and potentially put alarms it would be good. I know I can setup alarms in AWS but I'd like my app to be in charge of that.

Thanks
