    I use SEO quake and I just click load page information and is displays the PR, I then oipen yahoo site explorer and enter the url of the site and do the same again, this then verifies the site's PR.

    By using the 'info:' command on google. if you do a 'info:www.thedomain.com' and it shows a domain other than the one you entered, then it was at one time using a redirect.

    I'd test with and without the 'www'.

    You can also use one of the many page rank validator tools there are out there on the web. These usually work a treat!
