Sounds like an ideal application for an RCX input multiplexer: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=1092526

You can then have 12 switches on your RCX to measure two positions on each of 6 legs. Using the thermometer setting on the ports, each combination of switches is dstinguishable as a different raw sensor value with a margin of at least 5 counts, with 16 possible values per port. You could then plot the leg movement on a graph!
