Not sure what you are trying to do, but could connecting the piezo to the computer's soundcard, and detecting a volume peak within pd, do the same thing?

You are right. It would be the same thing. The final goal is to connect a wii mote and control it with pd with several movements, controlling pan, volume and Eq in any DAW. This question was really just to getting started with arduino. I want to check its latency and see how efficient it is.
Not sure if I get you right here, so let's see: When you use a Wii via Bluetooth into Pd then you don't really need the Arduino (unless there's Arduinos with Bluetooth already). Simply make Pd output Midi controller values which you assign to level, pan, aux etc. in your DAW. Another nice thing could be to make the Arduino output MIDI directly and I think this is not too hard, search the big garbage pile called internet. This would be the equivalent to building a midi fader box essentially. Others might be better at this: If you want to control a DAW's panning with the Wii, be advised that it does not detect rotation. Meaning: If you hold it like a TV remote control and pan it left and right like a compass needle, this does not get detected by the accelerometer.
cheez, P

Actually the rotation is not detected but can be calculated from the 3 accelerometers this is explained on the helpfile of the [wiimote] external.

It works very well for me.
