Anders,

I check mic hiss by putting it under a pile of bedclothes and
recording with various input combinations. You will probably have a
fairly constant low frequency house noise which can give you a
reference level. Judge the hiss by ear. If you have a sound editor (I
use Audacity) you can display the power spectrum as well.

It's not an absolute method but it give an easy way of comparing
different input configurations.
