I don't believe reordering is tracked on the receiver side but on the
sender, there are SNMB_MIB items.
They can be tracked and can be viewed using nstat/netstat

# nstat -az | grep -i reorder
TcpExtTCPFACKReorder            0                  0.0
TcpExtTCPSACKReorder            0                  0.0
TcpExtTCPRenoReorder            0                  0.0
TcpExtTCPTSReorder              0                  0.0

Thanks. For me after a 64MiB download, I have an increase of one FACK,
one SACK and one TS reorder. So my connection probably does even less
reordering than I thought, and thus isn't particularly relevant to this
conversation. I'll shut up now and go back to playing with ATM.

But you are the receiver. A receiver should not increase these counters.
