Windows Server 2003 (and XP, I believe) has a command line  
typeperf.exe program that ties into the performance monitoring system.

	http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/ 
proddocs/en-us/nt_command_typeperf.mspx?mfr=true

Here's an example command that returns after one poll.

	typeperf "\processor(_total)\% processor time" "\system\system up  
time" "\PhysicalDisk(0 C: D:)\Disk Transfers/sec" "\PhysicalDisk(0 C:  
D:)\% Idle Time" -sc 1

If you need infrequent numbers, set up a monitor that runs this  
command periodically from a monitor system.  If you don't need to  
centralize, you could even append the output of this command to a  
file using the Windows Scheduler service.
