Exchange 2007 message count

I am trying to get a total count of all emails that have been sent or received through my exchange 2007 server and I just want to look at it for 1 day. Can you recommend the best way to get this info. I tried to use perfmon on the exchange 2007 server by adding a monitor but it didn't collect any data. Can someone tell me a good shell command that will give me this by using the messagetrackinglog?

the performance log should work did you run it on the hub server? what counter did you add?

the below should also do it
(Get-MessageTrackingLog -Start 09-15-2011 -ResultSize unlimited  -EventId receive).count

I ran the MSExchange Transport SMTPReceive and smtpsend and selected total received and total sent. I tried your code above but it doesn't give me anything back.
did you run it on a hub server ?
Yes. We have 3 exchange servers and they all have mailbox, client access and hub transport on them and i ran the perfmon on each of them.
what about the script ? does it return anything if you simply run

Get-MessageTrackingLog
I think I got the perfmon to work this time. Not sure why it didn't take the first time since i went through same process. Anyway, I'll just wait to see what kind of results I get. Thanks for the help.
