Will you be able to see what the auditors are doing? That is, not look at the same things they are (you have said this is off limits) but ask about the scope of the audit and try and get some idea of how thorough and independent the audit is?

Edit: Wow this thread exploded whilst I was typing that - you addressed that in a reply you made above in the mean time. Good luck there, hope it goes well.
