That looks good to me.  So, I would have something like this then:

astFCChanStatsEntry.0.astFCChanActiveSec = 100    (a summation of
Zap/1-1, Zap/2-1, Zap/3-1, etc)
astFCChanStatsEntry.0.astFCChanName = Zap
astFCChanStatsEntry.0.astFCChanAdapter = 0

astFCAdapterStatsEntry.0.ChannelsTotal = 8


That would work well for total call times - I would also suggest adding
number of calls per channel as well, i.e.


astFCChanInboundCalls = 50
astFCChanOutboundCalls = 50

and corresponding adapter stats:

astFCAdaptorStatsInboundCalls = 50
astFCAdaptorStatsOutboundCalls = 50


where astFCChanInboundCalls are the number of calls initiated on that
channel, and astFCChanOutboundCalls are calls Dial'd onto that channel
