You just need to add the appropriate perfmon counters.

http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/5.0.3/Data/Real-timeWindowsperformancemonitoring

You should be adding stanzas like this to your perfmon configuration:

[PERFMON:Web Service]
counters = Get Requests/sec;Current Connections
disabled = 0
instances = *
interval = 10
object = Web Service
index = windows_perfmon
