Monitoring user activity isn't really the domain of Nagios... Nagios is more of a tool for detecting environment faults (network failures, hardware failures, software failures, things misbehaving in general). While you might be able to use Nagios for the purpose you want, there are probably far better tools out there to achieve this. The exact name of the kind of tool you are looking for escapes me at the moment, but I don't think Nagios is it.
