I think this will not be available.

Especially modulation-effects like flangers always have the potential to 
produce extreme peaks. If you want to limit the danger to your 
ears/hardware, put a capable limiter like foo lookahead limiter in 
Ardours Master-track. To be even more secure connect Ardours master-outs 
not to your soundcard but to jamin inputs. Then you connect jamin to 
your hardware-ports. Jamin has got a brickwall-limiter that justifies 
its name ;-)
