Is there no directory where bbclient information is gaterd.

Welcome to Hobbit. One thing Hobbit does very differently is that all of the status-reports are kept only in memory - writing them to disk is just too slow.

If you really must, you can enable the [bbstatus] task in hobbitlaunch.cfg to get the file-based status-logs, but I really cannot recommend doing that - and it is not necessary to do what you want.

In bigbrother I hade exhangeservers sending in information about private and public database sizes, the log file would contain f ex

green 20.4.2005 16:29:02

Exchange Database size check (GB): &green PrivateDatabase: 12.99 &green PublicDatabase : 3.22

and I was able to graph that with larrd. I am able to let hobbit display this graph but hobbit isn't getting the feed from the client.

Have a look at the hobbitd_larrd man-page, the "Custom RRD data" section. It should be really simple to write a Hobbit RRD extension to pick out those two data-items and have them tracked in an RRD file. If you cannot work it out, write again and I'll give you a hand with it.

BTW, the script you're using - is that something you wrote yourself or picked up from Deadcat ? I do try to make Hobbit work "out of the box" with some of the popular extensions from Deadcat, so if this is something that would be useful to others then I can add the graphing of this status-message into Hobbit.
