Have you tried EXPLAIN ?

EXPLAIN
        SELECT
                *
        FROM 
                tables
        WHERE
                this='this'     AND
                that='that'
        ORDER BY
                this, that
;

A query like this would return you some of the stats. Catch the time it
gives you and vuale...
not sure though, it might be useless if the time taken to do that is
equivalent as to select pulling the results out. (think it is)
