This might do, even though I doubt the routines are using rdtsc to
interpolate nondeterministic offset of the PIC architecture.

w32tm /stripchart /computer:<target> [/period:<refresh>] [/dataonly]
[/samples:<count>]

The current time is 3/8/2009 21:05:30 (local time).21:05:30
d:+00.0000000s o:+00.3047845s

Cheers,

Chris
