Well, 'ALTER INDEX MONITORING USAGE' should do the trick. Results should be
in V$OBJECT_USAGE. In connection to that, here is a sweet little bug in oracle 9.2.0.4:

SQL> select name from v$fixed_table where name='V$OBJECT_USAGE';  

no rows selected

Don't tell that to oracle, they might even fix it.
