What if you did it like this :
iptables -A INPUT -d xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Then iptables -L INPUT -nv should tell you how much traffic has passed by.
You could also create your own rule of course, but I think it's overkill.
iptables -N testrule
iptables -A testrule -d xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
iptables -A INPUT -j testrule
Then to check the traffic that passed by : iptables -L testrule -nv
