Hi David,

You can get this information from $wpdb->comments. In my plugin, http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-denyhost/, I do: 

                $suspect = $this->get_IP();
                $count = (int) $wpdb->get_var( $wpdb->prepare("SELECT COUNT(comment_ID) FROM $wpdb->comments  WHERE comment_approved = 'spam' AND comment_author_IP = '%s'",$suspect) );

I'd then need to check the comment status (see if it's spam), and that's about it. If I understand rightly, all plugins (like Akismet) that can mark a comment as spam, will have done their work by this point.
