I'm not sure I understand exactly what you are looking for and why.
Do you want to find out how many record protocol messages is used for
some particular application data?  I'm not sure it is easy to extract
this.  Perhaps Nikos will understand more and answer.

It would help if you could suggest an API that would solve your
problem, then I can see how difficult it would be to implement that
API.
