First excerpt the area you are interested in using the polygon
excerpt script or something (the road length counting script won't
work on the full planet due to memory issues). Then use the script in
applications/utils/filter/osm-length.
If you have the data in a PostGIS database (as created by osm2pgsql)
then there's some easy way of letting PostGIS do it all for you but I
forgot.
