Simple answer... no we do not have a way to track it...as this the
notification text is part of the repository metadata on each mirror.

Long answer...if there are mirror admins who would be willing to run
analysis scripts...i can work with them to get analysis scripts in
place which provide aggregate statistics concerning the rate at which
yum connections are made to the file holding the notifications.
If clients commonly pull that metadata file in situations even when
there isn't a human to read the data...then that won't tell us much.
But since its an optional repo metadata file, I'm hoping that isn't
happening automatically very often.  But mirror admins would have to
volunteer to run the scripts..or give us access to the logs so we can
parse them ourselves.
