I think tvheadend's status screen shows you SNR and signal strength, but I believe it's arbitrary as there's no common scale - so tvheadend has to trust whatever the adapter tells it, if everything. Think about comparing the number of bars of signal strength between an iPhone 4, a Galaxy S4 and a Nokia 2110... they'd all be different (especially the iPhone).
At best, you can use it for relative signal strength on that adapter over time.
