Reading the timestamp on the pagefile.sys will give you the starup time.
You can also use Systinternal's PsInfo to get the information:http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/utilities/psinfo.mspx

Is there is any metric on Windows XP (ideally I'd like to get the
information programmatically using the Windows API) from which I can
determine the time since the last reboot of a Windows XP machine?
Thanks in advance,
Alain
Hi Alain,
In the Event Viewer under System, Source: eventlog, EventID: 6005, shows
when the service was started. Usually on startup of the system.

Hello Alain,
Not quite sure what you need in "the time since the last reboot", but
if you just want to know the precise time a computer was logged into
then you could run a batch file at startup. It would look like this:
echo logon %username% %computername% %date% %time% >> C:\logon.log
Copy the above line into Notepad and save as logon.bat
Drag a shortcut of the .bat file to your startup folder (usually in
the Start=> Programs menu)
At every logon, the computer name, username and logon time is appended
to the log file indicated. Of course, you can change the location as
you wish.
If you're looking for a GUI to track computer usage time then this
freeware may help:
