    I'm not sure if this will do the trick, but try: http://extreme.outervision.com/psucalculator.jsp

    Never tried it myself so no idea how reliable it its.

    There was also this website that took into account your computers components and told you how much energy it used, can't find it now though. Maybe someone else can?

    Why don't measure your own?
