I am not an SNMP expert, but I believe SNMP cacheClients is "Number of
clients accessing cache" on the Cache Manager mgr:info page (you can
check by correlating SNMP and mgr:info output).
If you are using SMP Squid (e.g., multiple Squid workers), please see
the "Number of clients accessing cache" table row at
http://wiki.squid-cache.org/Features/CacheManager#SMP_considerations
