If you’re asking to track how many clients are connected to a given channel, the answer should be easy: 1. The Channel API doesn’t support broadcast.
If you’re asking for how to track whether a client is connected to a channel, there’s not a built-in way to do that right now. You can see the answer to this question for more info: AppEngine Channel API – Best way to check if a channel is still open (server side)
Presence for the Channel API (referenced in the above question) is coming very, very soon.
