Since I have a 1.5 GB monthly limit and since I leave my connection onfor

Why is this happening?
Is there a workaround/patch?
Not sure about the exact cause but you can try replacing rhost with
rip. Probably conky is doing host name check up for remote hosts. It
might be causing the bandwidth usage. Though it shouldn't be really
doing it if there are no remote connections.
You could also run tcpdump/wireshark to capture packets and find out
what is causing the network usage.
