be imported into Excel for graphing etc ???

Not exactly; SarCheck interpretes your sar files in plain English along
with recommendations for changing various tuneables as well as capacity
planning recommendations (CPU, RAM, etc.)

Why bother with ExHell for just a graph when MRTG can do it directly
to any web belcher? See:
http://www.cruzio.com/~jeffl/mrtg/orion/bell.pag.html
for a rather ugly, old, broken, and incomplete example of the output
of FreeMem and FreeSwap as reported by sar. Just pretend that it's
all there. The numbers are created by a shell script (that I can't
find right now) that runs a sar command (that I can't remember). I'll
see if I can find the scripts later.

You'll find that much of what you want to extract and graph via sar is
also available via SNMP.
