Comment (by tikitariki):

 I, too, would like to get a return variant of `dynamic_sidebar`. There's
 no easy way to get a count of WordPress widgets. I figured out a way using
 a hook for widgets, but I was stopped in my tracks yet again because the
 widget hooks won't fire off until the widgets are outputted, which is
 basically when `dynamic_sidebar` is ran. I need that count before calling
 `dynamic_sidebar`, but since it gets echoed out, I can't arrange the
 content appropriately. :(

 NOTE: This is my first Core Trac comment, if I did anything wrong in
