There's a <schemaInfo> element right under the <explain> element that
carries that data.

Here's a pointer to the Explain record for my LCNAF database.

Don't let the browser fool you!  View the source and you'll see the
actual XML that was returned.  The schemaInfo element is towards the
bottom.

p.s. For my LCNAF friends on the list, note the change to the <database>
element in the <serverInfo> section.  It now include the update date and
number of records in the database!  That's being automatically generated
by the SRW server.
