I second Matt's recommendation of IPCheck for things like file counts,
service uptime, etc.

For  number of threads, memory used and other process information, you
can  do that by using Microsoft's perfmib.dll, which is essentially an
SNMP  proxy for the Performance Counter functionality. Any element you
can  create  a Counter Log for in Perfmon (such as Thread Count for an
EXE image) you should be able to also query using SNMP.

I'm  not  sure  if  perfmib  is  supported  anymore, but it does work.
Alternately, you can try SNMP Informant or other third-party "bridges"
between PerfMon and SNMP.

FTR,  I  use  OpManager  for  agentless  SNMP-based  monitoring, while
IPCheck  is  better for its proprietary -- and I find more reliable --
suite of both agent-driven and agentless monitors. YMMV.
