I recently had this problem when creating an OCR script for the visually impaired. I couldn't find and tools which detect orientation so instead I wrote a simple bash script to detect the number of legible characters in the OCR'd text and to compare this with the same text flipped over. It works for plain text but I suspect it would struggle with text containing images or non-english language. If you are interested please let me know and I will send you the script.
