Is there a reason that standard ICMP pings aren't appropriate if you just want packet loss info? Obviously every platform worth using has ping built in.

In UDP mode, iperf sends at 1 Mbps by default. You change
the rate with the -b flag. There's an iperf-2.0.5-cygwin
build floating around for Windows.
