If you want to check the services and processes themselves (plus potentially a lot else besides), you can use a client on the Windows server such as nsclient, nsclient++ or nc_net and the plugin check_nt on the Nagios server in order to query performance counters on the Windows servers. A Google for "check_nt performance counters" should pull up some useful information. SNMP is also a possibility for IIS and many other services if you prefer to go down that route.
