I'm lucky, the recorder's website shows the last date the affidavits were updated. Today's published update was 6/12/06 which is what I put in the report I just finished.
I'd be careful about making sure the dates you report are accurate. If the last date the source was updated is 3/01/06 (running way behind) and you put today's date as the "effective date" (without a reasonable explanation) you're basically taking responsibility for any activity that may have occurred between the last real effective date of the source and the effective appraisal date.
I know many areas aren't fortunate enough to have frequently updated and current sources of confirmation so advice will vary! :-)
