Hi Subham,
If you are looking for the size of the WID file, you can get this through the InfoObject.
Please note that this WID file only changes if the WebI document was actually saved.
Below is a sample code snippet that will retrieve the file size from an InfoObject:
IInfoStore boInfoStore = (IInfoStore) boEnterpriseSession.getService("InfoStore");
String query = "SELECT SI_FILES FROM CI_INFOOBJECTS WHERE SI_INSTANCE='false' AND SI_NAME='" + webiDoc + "'";
IInfoObjects boInfoObjects = boInfoStore.query(query);
if (boInfoObjects.size() > 0) {
     IInfoObject boInfoObject = (IInfoObject) boInfoObjects.get(0);
     IFiles boFiles = boInfoObject.getFiles();
     IFile boFile = null;
     for (int i=0; i<boFiles.size(); i++) {
         boFile = (IFile) boFiles.get(i);
         out.print(boFile.getName() + ": " + boFile.getSize() + "<BR>");
} else {
      out.print("No WebI document found!");
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Dan
