If you install the Splunk Deployment Monitor, you will get these metrics in a couple of dashboards. Oh, and I believe that you have similar functionality under Status -> Index/Indexing Overview in the Search app. Sorry, I don't remember the exact name of the menu option, no splunk in front of me right now.

Since these views are built on saved searches, you can study them for educational purposes.
