    Just want to share the found solution. To get whether Windows Authentication is is enabled for current web application do following: 

     Microsoft.Web.Administration.ConfigurationSection windowsAuthenticationSection = Microsoft.Web.Administration.WebConfigurationManager.GetSection("system.webServer/security/authentication/windowsAuthentication");
 return windowsAuthenticationSection["enabled"];

    Please note that the code above get effective configuration:

    If there is not configuration specified for the web application the setting form the parent web site will be returned. You can find more info about the configuration inheritance here: Working With Configuration Files in IIS 7
