Is something like this stack experiment you need?
http://www.aslugontheroad.co.cc/index.php?option=com_phocadownload&view=category&download=15:experiment-017-pending-message-observer&id=3:samples&Itemid=63

In the stack I have dropped 3 buttons.
1) A button to launch a send in time message. The message increments a counter
2) A button to launch a send in time message which observe the state
of the first pendingmessage and its counter
3) A button to stop the two messages

A field gives you the state of the counter when the observer is launched.
You can define the number of iterations in a field.
