 Not directly. There are some links in the sendmail FAQ.

 I am using a script named smtpstats, written by Bryan Beecher.
 It prints the number of from/to mails on a per host basis, and
 I think it should not be difficult to modify it to compute mail
 size, accumulated and average.

 sed -n 's/^.*, size=\([^,]*\),.*$/\1/p' for a start :)
