I have a Google map (v3) on my site and I want to know what scale is my current zoom. The thing is that the user can change it's zoom so the scale can change.
The information I need is the actual width in kilometers of my map. I know I can use Bounds... but is there any other way? I really don't want to use Bounds.
Thank you!

computeDistanceBetween
orcomputeLength
. Something like this I think should give you what you need:
