You can put a message to the SYSTEM.COMMAND.INPUT queue (assuming your program has the authority). DISPLAY QUEUE(MYQUEUE)CURDEPTH is the command. You have to specify a reply to q and qmgr. Then you get the reply messages and check the depth. I believe three messages are returned and the second one contains the depth. I haven't got time right now to look up the format, but it should be available in the Prorammable System Management manual.
