SQL query;  Query for new SQL instances

Hello,

I am looking to wirte a SQL query that will produce a result which will tell me if a new SQL instance has been created on a given server. I am trying to come up with a query with the correct logic that can tell me this.  I'd be willing to have a query that told me the SQL insrance count if one could not be written that determines if a new SQL instance has been created since the last time I would have run the quey.  

Thanks for any help.  This is urgent so worth 500 points.
