As you have been told (by me as well as someone else) you can't count
traffic between localhost (127.0.0.1) and any remotehost, because the
remote host will not be talking to your 127.0.0.1 it will talk to itself
on 127.0.0.1

Just remove the -d localhost and the -s localhost from the SSH tunnel
rules, and you will then see your actual network traffic.
