That's not easy, unfortunately. GROMACS ought to be able to write an ASCII matrix of the .xpm data so that you can find out this kind of information, and while that's been on the to-do list for a while, I don't know if any progress has happened. In lieu, the best you can do is examine the axis scale and count suitably. Worst case, use trjconv to make a trajectory containing only a plausible subset of the residues, and examine the smaller matrix that g_mdmat will then produce.

g_mdmat -h penultimate sentence of the description.
