IIUC, this should (almost) answer the OP's request, by displaying the outline
path in mode line:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  (add-hook 'org-mode-hook
            (lambda() (add-to-list 'mode-line-format
                                   '(:eval (org-propertize
                                            (org-display-outline-path nil t " / " t)
                                           'face 'mode-line-emphasis
                                           'help-echo "Outline path")) t)))
#+end_src

A variation of it could directly count the number of levels...

Best regards,
