I'm just doing the same, and besides not getting i/o yet i also miss the
number of tap-interfaces, would fit into 'xm list -l <domain>' output.
An idea to get the mapping could be to have a look on what tap-interfaces
are in use bevore domain-creation and after, the interfaces in use now
are the ones belonging to the domain.

Had a look at the filehandles that are open for /dev/net/tun and the 
qemu-dm processed, and at the logfiles, without better hints.
