    No, there isn't. Currently, this is simply a function of the operating
system and/or browser. FWIW, in IE 4+, you can check to see whether a user
has font-smoothing enabled:

<script type="text/javascript">

  if (document.all)
  {
    if (!screen.fontSmoothingEnabled)
    {
      // display a message, or a link to a message, describing
      // the benefits of font-smoothing, and how to enable it, etc.
    }
  }

</script>
