[Bioperl-l] blastxml interation number

I was searching in the deobfuscator under
*Bio::Search::Result::BlastResult*but there doesn't seem to be a
method to extract the iteration number from a
blastxml report.  I can see this number being very useful to count the
number of queries that didn't hit anything since the are no empty reports in
the blastxml output.  If I'm missing something, I would welcome an example
how to retrieve the result iteration number, otherwise I'm suggesting that
an iteration_count feature be added to the Result object.  Thanks in advance
for any suggestions.
