Your mistake here is thinking that the servlet api was intended to be useful :)

You have to do something like this:

            boolean expired = false;
            try
            {
                 session.getAttribute("anything"):
                 expired = false;
            }
            catch (IllegalStateException e)
            {
                expired = true;
            }
