Would it be possible to enable fetch of the interface stats of the dom0
via the API?

It sounds a bit Xen specific, but I see no reason why this should not be
allowed.

I disagree - Dom0 is a concept only present in a subset of hypervisors.
What Stefan is really asking for is ability to get stats of devices in
the host OS. This kind of thing belongs in a separate API such as
virNodeInterfaceStats so it is usable across all our drivers.

I wonder if you mean remotely?
Anyway, it's not possible with libvirt, but in general Linux you can
always get the "dom0 network stats" by just reading /proc/net/dev
