Hello Marcin

I do not believe you can obtain this information via the REST API, however, you could build an [HTTP Provider](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-create-an-http-provider) that diagnosed each published stream (or just the one requested) and then query against that remotely to obtain this information.

Thanks,

Matt
