Try sending an HTTP request with Request-URI you are interested in and with a "Cache-Control: only-if-cached" header. You should get a 504 (Gateway Timeout) error if the object is missing. If you prefer to use squidclient, its -H command line option can be used to send the extra header (do not forget \n though). HTH, Alex.
