AB  - Motivated by nonclassical Weyl laws arising in various contexts (including Connes' approach to the Riemann Hypothesis), we develop a systematic theory of Dixmier traces and Connes' noncommutative integration for weak Lorentz ideals associated with regularly varying functions. A key ingredient is an asymptotic additivity property for eigenvalue partial sums, obtained by combining Karamata's theorem with results of Kalton and Lord-Sukochev-Zanin. This yields a direct construction of Dixmier traces in terms of eigenvalue sequences and a complete spectral characterization of measurable operators, answering a question of Connes in this general setting. We also extend to weak Lorentz ideals the Birman-Solomyak perturbation theory for eigenvalue and singular-value asymptotics. Weyl operators (those admitting precise asymptotic limits for their rescaled eigenvalue sequences) are shown to form a closed subset of the ideal, stable under compact perturbations, extending classical results of Weyl and Birman-Solomyak. We further study strong measurability (measurability with respect to all positive normalized traces). We prove that every Weyl operator is strongly measurable, so spectral measurability implies strong measurability. The converse does not hold in general; a spectral characterization via Pietsch's correspondence is obtained in the forthcoming companion pape. Finally, as an application, we establish spectral measurability for operators arising from nonclassical Weyl laws: operators associated with the Riemann Hypothesis (assuming RH); Schrödinger operators with anisotropic potentials and Dirichlet Laplacians on infinite-volume domains; Dirac operators on open spin manifolds with conformally cusp metrics; and the operator formed by the Dirac operator of the Podles quantum sphere and the Laplacian on the 2-torus.
