TTBOMK, only by parsing the backend logs and looking for lines like:

2008-05-11 19:59:43.370 Started recording: The Simpsons "Mona Leaves-a": 
channel 1351 on cardid 1, sourceid 1

or--if you have database logging enabled--with something like:

SELECT * FROM mythlog WHERE module = 'scheduler' AND message LIKE  
'%Started recording%'

Though chances are your logs will go back farther (and I only seem to 
have those "Started recording" log messages in the DB for recordings 
from my master backend--but that could be user configuration error...).
