Yes, parse the +CONTENTS file and restore the associated @ts.

Any tool that reads files can do so easily. In perl,
perl -ne '$seen = 1 if m/sqlports-compact/; if ($seen == 1 && m/\@ts\s+(.*)/) { 
system("date -r $1"); exit 0; }' /var/db/pkg/sqlports-compact-*/+CONTENTS
will retrieve and display the timestamp.

Something similar can be easily cobbled using any kind of sed/awk/grep

You assume sqlports-compacts should/can have the snapshots of +CONTENTS... this 
is not quite true.
