No, these are production servers with some 10-15 VMs on them.
But all VMs reside on an iSCSI SAN, is the script maybe looking for IO
on local disks only? That would explain the low figures as there is
hardly any activity at all on the local disks.

If I remember correctly, output for the IO command is momentary, i.e. a 
snapshot of the current values at the time of issuing the API command. 
Are you testing it against a very lightly loaded ESX host?
