It’s future rather than past but I have my tuners named and the upcoming recordings page in mythweb tells me which tuners are going to be used for what. Currently I can see that my 3rd DVBS2 tuner is only required for two programmes a week, it’s the summer(ish) not much on so two DVBS2 tuners with 5 multirec is enough.

I think there’s an equivalent status screen in the frontend but I’m not very familiar with that and when I’ve tried it it didn’t seem to present the information in such a clear manner.
