How would you do it? I imagine the code would be something like  
[AS]  
var bytesLastLoaded = 0;  
fps = 20;  
onEnterFrame{  
loaded = \_root.getBytesLoaded();  
speed = (loaded - bytesLastLoaded)\*fps;  
bytesLastLoaded = loaded;  
}  
[/AS]

Would something like this work or is there a better way to do it? Ideally I wouldn’t use fps, I would use setInterval but this was what I just pulled out of my head a second ago. I guess I could also use getTimer somehow
