Find busiest directory in filesystem

Does anyone have a method for finding the busiest directories in a
filesystem? iostat is telling me that the device that /var is on is
fairly busy.

I know about the standard things that go on in /var (like logging to
/var/adm/messages and /var/log/syslog and queuing mail)... so I can
manually go watch these to see if they're busy... but rather than
guessing, I'd like a tool/script that would list the busiest directories
under /var.... anyone have this?

This is a UFS filesystem, BTW.

Thanks
