Extract plot range from mma

Mathematica automatically figures out an appropriate plotrange for a plot 
in most cases. Is there a way to know this vary PlotRange calculated by mma?

I am writing some special curve ploting functions. It would be great to 
have mma pass me this information from an arbitrary plot. If this cannot 
be done, pephaps someone can tell me what is the algorithm used in mma to 
calculate this "optimal" PlotRange?

You may send the answer to me. I will do a summary of all replies in 
about a week. Thanks.
