Nope, we don't have such method, what we have is a fast vector to raster
based on java2d painting plus some tricks
to retain the actual values (based on color-value associations, given that
colors can represent 32bit worth of values).

The vector based approach can become quite costly due to the high number of
intersections, I would also consider
rasterizing at a higher resolution and then do pixel counts as an
alternative.
