dir(queue.Queue()) shows an attribute 'unfinished_tasks'.

It appears to be the counter referred to in the docs to 'join()', but it is not documented itself.

I would like to make use of it, but I don't know if it is part of the official API for this module.

Please advise.

Just as you thought, the 'unfinished_tasks' attribute not intended to be part of the public API for queues.
