If you imported all of your rasters with one raster2pgsql command the "extent" 
column in the "raster_column" table should correspond to the global extent.

If you imported with many commands, added or deleted tiles afterward, "extent" 
is not up to date.

You can play with the ST_Extent aggregate.

SELECT ST_Extent(rast)
FROM your table

That would be the preferred way to get an uptodate extent. If it's slow, create 
an index on your raster column.
