Use Rainmeter to monitor a specific process from Windows 7 performance monitor

[Slayeroffaith]

As the title implies I am curious how someone could go about using Rainmeter to monitor a specific process from the Performance monitor. For instance, say I wanted to monitor Avg. disk transfer/sec. Is this even possible? I have a little bit of coding experience, but not enough to figure this out.

I have been having some issues with my comp and I wanted to monitor some things while running different tasks, but on something with a percentage and a smaller window compared to performance monitor itself.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
