That's not true. If you use OpenSer + Radius ACC + MediaProxy + CDRTool 
(optional) you can get 99% accurate: if a UAC hangs down then it will not 
send a BYE but neither RTP so MediaProxy will detect it and update vía Radius 
or SQL.

Other way is using OpenSer ACC in conjunction with a B2BUA or gateways 
supporting Session Timers. In this case, if the UAC crashes it will not 
respond to the re-INVITE/UPDATE and the B2BUA/gateway will send a BYE so 
OpenSer will account the session properly.

AFAIK those are the existintg ACC ways using accounting into a proxy.
