Realtime sound analysis tools for Max8, any recommendations in lieu of Tristan Jehan's 'analyzer'?

Hi all
There have been a few posts from people looking for Tristan Jehan's brilliant analyzer~ - or some equivalent for Max8.
I'm currently working on a project where I need to measure the 'noisiness' of a sound, and am thinking there must be some way to do this with something like pfft~ or other newer methods made possible with Max8.
On a similar note, do people have any suggestions for the Max8 equivalents for Miller Puckette's fiddle~ and bonk~ objects?
