Hi Annie,
The answer to your question is "not many at the moment (but a few are on the way)".
The folks at CBEI are working on a fork of Daysim that will calculate these metrics (sDA and ASE as per IESNA LM-83) on individual spaces. The plan is for those results to be seamlessly applied to entire building models via OpenStudio. OpenStudio proper will also support these and other daylight metrics much better than it has, in the next quarter or so.
Also check in with the folks at IDL-Boise, as those guys developed a Python script a while back that would also do these calculations. I have no experience with IES-VE but I have heard it is claiming to report sDA (no word on ASE; the two metrics compliment one another).
