Install aws cli if not already installed, then use http://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/cloudwatch/get-metric-statistics.html

Example:

aws cloudwatch get-metric-statistics --namespace 'AWS/RDS' --metric-name 'CPUUtilization' --start-time '2017-05-25T12:00:00Z' --end-time '2017-05-25T12:30:00Z' --period 60 --statistics 'Maximum'
