Couple ideas:

If you don't need history about the specific jobs submitted by the 
different users, condor_history may be overkill.

condor_userprio uses centralized info (at the central manager), and can 
give you a breakdown of compute hours delivered per user.

condor_stats uses centralized info (at the central manager, and can give 
you a breakdown per user over periods of time of compute hours, jobs 
running, jobs idle.

The CondorView client is essentially a script that massages the text 
output from condor_stats into pretty HTML web pages like this:
   http://condor-view.cs.wisc.edu/condor-view-applet/
Note the "Pool User Statistics" info on the right hand side.

Just some thoughts, hope it helps,
