Although this won't give you a scientific measurement, I like to use the "Wifi Analyzer" android application to visualize power output (signal strength really) in the 2.4G range. Again this is just going to give you a qualitative output.
You don't have to use that particular app, but I semi trust it. I also like the airodump-ng program with a wireless nic in monitor mode to see real time data, and not just "3 bars". Again, you will give a measurement in decibels (dbm?), but it will be relative dependent on the nic driver, but it is something. Then just tune the power down until it is as strong as you can get away with, which very well might be the lowest setting.
