    Use the WMI Performance Counter Classes:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/wmisdk/wmi/performance_counter_classes.asp?frame=true

    Specifically for Memory Counters:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/wmisdk/wmi/win32_perfformatteddata_perfos_memory.asp?frame=true

    You can find samples here:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/wmisdk/wmi/wmi_tasks__performance_monitoring.asp?frame=true
    http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/default.mspx

    The following example would output the 'CommitedBytes' and 'PagePerSec'
    counters every 5 seconds.

    '---BEGIN EXAMPLE---
    strComputer = "."
    Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
       & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" _
       & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
    set objRefresher = CreateObject _
       ("WbemScripting.SWbemRefresher")
    Set colItems = objRefresher.AddEnum _
       (objWMIService, "Win32_PerfFormattedData_PerfOS_Memory").objectSet
    objRefresher.Refresh
    While(true)
       For Each objItem in colItems
         Wscript.Echo "Committed Bytes: " & _
            objItem.CommittedBytes
         Wscript.Echo "Pages per Second: " & _
            objItem.PagesPerSec
         Wscript.Echo "------------------------------"
         Wscript.Sleep 5000
         objRefresher.Refresh
       Next
    Wend
    '---END EXAMPLE---
