wel in recent versions of pg it should be pretty easy to do that from
within SQL by using pg_ls_dir() and pg_stat_file().
maybe something(rough sketch) along the line of:
select sum((pg_stat_file('pg_xlog/' || file)).size) from
pg_ls_dir('pg_xlog') as file where file ~ '^[0-9A-F]';
might do the trick
