Although there is probably a rigorous way of doing this, I wouldn't really
try.  Since inside the region of intensity you will get additional peaks
(from multiples of the primary separation) you are only really interested in
the point at which the intensity starts i.e. the outer edge.  I personally
would fit that with one half of a Gaussian, call the sigma the error and
average over all directions (to a first approximation, just the directions
which identify the bounds of the distribution i.e. the longest and the
shortest).  I don't think it matters that this is not particularly rigorous
as it's a pretty fuzzy number in the first place.  I don't know about
tutorials - I have thought about writing some, but the people who would read
them probably number in the 1s.
