Server status in mod_perl

Hello all,

Apache httpd has a module, mod_status, that gives information about.
amongst other things, the number of active workers, the number of idle
workers etc...
(See: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_status.html)
My question: Is there a way to access this info from within a modperl
handler? I want to write a custom status modules. I could of course
program it to make a request for /server-status and parse the result,
but is there a better way?
