I really don't like programs that annoy you with emails.  That said,
I agree there hasn't been a way to be sure BackupPC is running ok.

In BackupPC 3.0.0beta there is a new option to BackupPC_sendEmail:

    -c  check if BackupPC is alive and send an email if not

That allows you to run BackupPC_sendEmail -c from cron and
it will send an email to $Conf{EMailAdminUserName} if it
can't contact the BackupPC server.

The existing email options should handle the cases where BackupPC
is running but backups are failing.
