I don't keep track at all. When I report to the table, I expect the scorer to tell me if the team is "out" of the type requested. Then I tell the coach, for instance, that it's not a 30 but a 60 since that's all he has left. Prior to the game, I tell the scorer only to tell us when a team has used it's final TO, not how many remain since I don't care.

While we're on the subject, a similar situation exists with personal foul counts. I tell the scorer absolutely not to tell me or my partner how many personal fouls a player has unless we just called the fifth. I'm sure you can realize the "indirect" benefits of this policy.
