  1. Add this to you localhost config (default):

    server {
  server_name  localhost;
      [---snip---]
  location /nginx_status {
    stub_status on;
    access_log   off;
    allow 127.0.0.1;
    deny all;
  }
      [---snip---]
}

    Then read (from localhost only) with:

    $ wget -O - -q http://localhost/nginx_status

    gives (for example):

    Active connections: 2 
server accepts handled requests
