Just try HTL=1 on a couple of different keys, and wait until you get one
fast enough that there is less than .22 (or x) chance that it passed
through two nodes (and if you get two keys like that you can say with
x? chance that at least one of them was on your node).

The only way to do this safely is to have the wait long enough in
comparison to the hoptimes that the number of hops becomes insignificant
to the resulting time, and then do some (low) random chance of DNFing at
each node.
