FWIW, Abovenet handles it exactly like you mentioned -
Max(95%(out),95%(in)), and I'm fairly certain UUnet does as well. At
least, the weekly transfer stats they mail us seem to indicate that, but
we don't have a contract that would make use of transfer stats, so it is
possible that it varies, but I don't think so.
