I'm not certain about whether the Java & Perl bindings support them,
but these are the calls you should use:

http://libvirt.org/html/libvirt-libvirt.html#virNodeGetInfo
http://libvirt.org/html/libvirt-libvirt.html#virNodeGetCellsFreeMemory
http://libvirt.org/html/libvirt-libvirt.html#virNodeGetFreeMemory

For CPU usage of the host, libvirt doesn't specifically provide that
information.  If the hypervisor is Xen, then you can get information
about CPU usage of Dom0 (usually what is meant by "the host") using:

http://libvirt.org/html/libvirt-libvirt.html#virDomainGetInfo

but that won't work for QEMU/KVM where "the host node" is just the
Linux kernel.  (In the local case, you can extract that information
you need just by looking in /proc or using ordinary Linux tools).
