We've taken to using Graphite for metrics. It's a one-liner to put values collected from xymon into graphite; it's also possible to alert on graphite values in xymon
(I confess I didn't write those scripts, but it's basically grabbing info from a URL designed for that purpose)
Our tools are based on these, written by Dewey Sasser https://github.com/dmsasser/graphiteutils
