I rarely use Windows, and don't currently have access to a Windows machine, but you should be able to use WMI/WQL to get what you need.

This distribution provides a DBI interface to WMI:

https://metacpan.org/release/DBD-WMI

The correct query would be along the lines of

Select Name, currentbandwidth
  FROM Win32_PerfFormattedData_Tcpip_NetworkInterface

More about that class from MSDN.
