I have a scenario in my app where I'd like to be able to do that too. But instead of looking for an API to do that, I resorted to using a pull queue instead. A backend processes my pull queue a few times in a day, but between those times, I'd like to be able to query the pull queue and gather some statistics based on the payload in all the queued pull tasks. I do that by leasing the tasks for a short period of time, so I can peak into them. And then I don't delete the tasks. GAE doesn't delete my tasks after I lease them either, because I have set the retry count to default=0. Using pull queues also had the advantage for me because it allowed me to utilize my backend within the free 9 hour quota, and free up those Instance Hours from front-ends, and eventually result in a lower instance hour bill.
