Yeah.

There is a global variable, called $wp_filter that holds all of the hooks.

So basically, mockup code would be like.

<?php

function get_foo_hooks()
{
    global $wp_filter;

    if( isset($wp_filter['foo']) )
    {
        $i = 0;
        foreach($wp_filter['foo'] as $priority)
          $i += count($priority);
       return $i;
    }
}
?>

Or something.
