Android sensor how to get the accuracy at anytime?

I know the onAccuracyChanged(Sensor sensor, int accuracy) callback, but it only happens when there's a change. How do I get the accuracy at anytime?
In Google Map, if you click on a POI where you're currently at, there's an option for you to Calibrate Compass, and in that screen they show you the current accuracy level.
In order words, after I calibrate my compass with figure 8, how do I check if my accuracy level indeed increases? I need a way something like sensor.getAccuracy() but I can't find that method.

I don't think there is anything like that. You'll probably have to just listen to the onAccuracyChanged callback and keep track of that value yourself.

I thought of that. I have to keep track of it myself. But I'd like them to add something so I can just get it on init, or on the fly.
