Sure not since the reason you gave above ;)


I don't know a solution, but what about using the dialog module for that?
With that you can know how man calls are active (note that a died call with no 
BYE is still considered as active <= OpenSer not call-stateful). You could 
parse the result of the command about the active calls in order to find 
the "From" and count them.

But I think a more solid solution could be using a B2BUA.
