Subject: Is the current link bitrate available in /proc or /sys?

I know I can get the bitrate using iwconfig or iw for a given wireless
card, but I was wondering if it was exposed anywhere in /proc or /sys.
I looked but could not find it, which either means I looks in the wrong
place or that it is not there. If it is not there is a good reason why
not? I ask because on my little embedded boards starting apps like iwconfig
or iw takes while, and I would rather get right to the data.
