I had already found that page but Thank you Konstantin.

Well, I finally found the solution... accidentally:

* If I use EAP-TLS authentication, the input-octets, output-octets and 
so are missing, as I said, but...
* But if I use no authentication (open network), only accounting, THE 
VALUES ARE CORRECTLY TRACKED!

      Acct-Session-Id = "00000009"
      Called-Station-Id = "0013.60e7.e900"
      Calling-Station-Id = "0040.96a8.2b73"
      Cisco-AVPair = "ssid=wifi2005"
      Cisco-AVPair = "nas-location=unspecified"
      Cisco-AVPair = "connect-progress=Call Up"
      Acct-Session-Time = 56
      Acct-Input-Octets = 7857
      Acct-Output-Octets = 160
      Acct-Input-Packets = 104
      Acct-Output-Packets = 2
      User-Name = "004096a82b73"
      Acct-Status-Type = Alive
      NAS-Port-Type = Wireless-802.11
      Cisco-NAS-Port = "261"
      NAS-Port = 261
      Service-Type = Framed-User
      NAS-IP-Address = 192.168.100.1
      Acct-Delay-Time = 0
      Client-IP-Address = 192.168.100.1
      Acct-Unique-Session-Id = "f5f4ca44acedd04f"
      Timestamp = 1136800870


Of course I want authentication, so I can link an user with his use of 
resources. This is not a valid solution.
I'm now trying other "flavours" of EAP, to see if any of them track the 
octets. Is this a Cisco IOS bug? I'm doing something wrong? Thanks in 
advance.
