Yes - Win32 has Performance Counters which are an extensible set of monitored objects, and a rich API to access them - see http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/perfmon /base/performance_monitoring.asp for details. The perfmon program (Start -> Run -> perfmon -> OK) gives a GUI interface to play with in which you can monitor any installed counter.
