All interpolatingfunctionanatomy.m contains is a bunch of "wrapper" 
defintions for InterpolatingFunction extractors defined within the 
Context "DifferentialEquations`InterpolatingFunctionAnatomy`".

Given an InterpolatingFunction ifun, here is the syntax:

ifun@string[]

where string is one of the following:

"Domain"
"Coordinates"
"DerivativeOrder"
"InterpolationOrder"
"Grid"
"ValuesOnGrid"

For example, one could define
InterpolatingFunctionDomain[ifun_InterpolatingFunction] := 	
     ifun@"Domain"[]
