How to tell if a server is down?

I have been conducting some tests of a OAPI program, to see how it handles
the server going down
or being disconnected during a session. It appears to be very difficult to
detect this situation - the API
keeps chugging along, returning most properties, but empty messages, which I
cannot assume represent
a failure, since they really may be empty. Is there a suggested way to
detect if the server or POA is not
running?

In 8.0.0, a Ping() method was added to the Account object.
This does a simple request to the POA. If it returns
successfully, the POA is up and running.
