You can look at st->leak-estimate within mdf.c, but it's not exposed
through the API and is *very* approximate (if I really knew how well the
AEC was doing, I could cancel much better). A value of 0 for
leak_estimate means "perfect cancellation", while a value of 1 means no
cancellation. Then, .1 means -10 dB and so on.

That approach would be really tough at best. Just not worth spending my
time on it.
