Well actually, that's exactly what you do. If you set libpq to non-blocking mode and call PQgetResult() on an async query, it will in fact give a result set that PQftype() works on. Note that in this mode some functions sometimes return odd results. For example, you only know that the query has finished executing when PQgetResult returns a fatal error. Still, I and others have used this technique successfully.
