There are so many tools to monitor Squid proxy activity. I am suggesting SARG and MySAR. I am tried both and found very useful.

SARG will provide you good statistics but will not provide live state. MySAR will provide you Live reports in very mannered way but not provide you good statistics like SARG.

You can configure both  and choose one of them.

Google is the best tool to find anything. Following are the links to the software I suggested.

For Sarg : http://sarg.sourceforge.net/
For Mysar : http://giannis.stoilis.gr/software/mysar/
