I use these two functions...

        <cffunction name="catalogExists" access="public"
returntype="boolean" output="false"
                        hint="Checks to see if a catalog exists by
attemtping to perform a search.">

                <cfreturn CatalogStats().recordcount GT 0>
        </cffunction>

        <cffunction name="catalogStats" access="public" returntype="query"
output="false"
                        hint="Returns all the catalog statistics">

                <cfset var q = "">

                <cflock name="#variables.instance.searchHash#"
type="readonly" timeout="20">
                        <cfcollection action="list" name="q">
                </cflock>

                <cfquery name="q" dbtype="query">
                        SELECT *
                        FROM q
                        WHERE name = <cfqueryparam
value="#variables.instance.catalog#" cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar"
maxlength="100">
                </cfquery>

                <cfreturn q>
        </cffunction>
