What do you mean ??
Power ?? Wattmeter..is only method.

else a bit inaccurate reading may be obtained by measuring Current & voltage & finding their product

Start the SMPS using paper-pin method. Then add load, but do not exceed the rated amps. If it is local PSU, be more careful. To measure total watt, buy a digital watt-meter which will cost you at least 1K.
