OEM version of ni usb-6501 contains IDC connector, i want to know what is the pitch of the pins in this connector in order to build a daughter board for it??

I'm guessing it uses the IDC standard 2.54mm (0.100") pitch.

It's a standard 0.1"-pitch 34-pin ribbon connector... description/dimensional drawings in the product information PDF.

Connector for the 6501 juts off to the side; unlike the 600x-series you can't just solder a header connector on the mobo and press the DAQ/DIO onto it. 

Use something like this on the PCB, pick up a few of these connectors and a couple feet of ribbon cable to make your own connecting cables.  The hole pattern for the DIO is in the product manuals as well.
