 You can compute it via total hash rate of your miners divided by pool hash rate. 
 How do you know the pool doesn't make up hash under their control? 
 you dont. for any pool you dont have that info. including ocean. there is some semblence of trust for all of them. 
 What if you published all shares with a signature from the pool that miners could independently validate? 
 Even better, pools should adopt stratum v2 
 They could still cheat, but in order to get away with it the miner that they’re not publishing signed shares for would have to be checking and call them out? Is that right? So if all miners check all the time against the signed pool-published shares, then they would get caught? Miners would also need receipts for all shares submitted 
 Yup! That's the idea.  
 This brings up a question for me on global hash rate, whether it is a summation of pools' self-reported rates or measured some other way? To cheat pool participants, they would be incentived to report higher hash rate
