gc.disable() at the beginning and then analyzing the results of gc.collect() actually does do what I was wanting, thank you.

Reference cycles in and of themselves aren't the problem. It's only a problem if garbage contains reference cycles. In a normal program, a class wouldn't generally ever become garbage, so it wouldn't be a problem.
