If you have logging enabled, you can search for the string "Session use 
count" for *clerk/*report (ie: runtime) sessions, or "Cabe session use 
count" for *cabe (ie: dev) sessions.  The last one would be the current count.

     grep "Session use count" /appl/fp/logs/server.log | tail -1
or
     grep "Cabe session use count" /appl/fp/logs/server.log | tail -1

(Edit the path as needed, obviously.)

Note, however, that the log does not include "out of NNN".
