This is for native code - you can either go thru the (older) registry 
interface, or the newer Pdh interface

For C#/.net stuff this little snip (borrowed from the PowerSDR source code) 
will do the job:

private static PerformanceCounter cpu_usage;
                public static float CpuUsage
                {
                        get
                        {
                                if (cpu_usage == null)
                                {
                                        cpu_usage = new PerformanceCounter(
                                                "Processor", "% Processor 
Time", "_Total", true);
                                }
                                return cpu_usage.NextValue();
                        }
                }

PerformanceCounter is  the  package System.Diagnostics
