Approximatively:

SQL> desc v$controlfile_record_section
 Name                                   
 ---------------------------------------
 TYPE                                   
 RECORD_SIZE                            
 RECORDS_TOTAL                          
 RECORDS_USED                           
 FIRST_INDEX                            
 LAST_INDEX                             
 LAST_RECID

Sum all the records.

Michel

What about the other info from v$controlfile in 11g?
There are two values about block_size and FILE_SIZE_BLKS, which are only available in 11g. So, I think it is easy to know controlfile size. And more, I believe it is more accurate, since it is not necessary to calculate by a little bit complex as mentioned in (http://www.ixora.com.au/q+a/0102/02112927.htm).

1/ The value given by this view is not correct, for instance, in case it gives 14090240 bytes when it is actually 14106624 bytes (one block left).
2/ The script in ixora is no more correct as v$controlfile_record_section does not expose all the sections.
