In the Statistics Collector, you can listen to an event for all objects in a group. In your case, it sounds like you'd want to listen to OnEntry and OnExit for all racks in the group. To do this, you can use the sampler. Be sure the toolbox is open, and that the Groups section is expanded so that you can see your group. Then you can use the sampler to sample the group, and choose the event you want. The stats collector will listen to that event for all objects in the group.
The steps after this depend on whether you want the Statistics Collector to show a single number, with the total number of items in it, or if you want to see that "total content" over time.
As a side note, you can make table charts and history charts that show this data. Any chart with the word "composite" in its name will get you this kind of data. Just add your group to both the entry and exit objects.
