I had the same worry about scatter feeding. I do a mix of pellets and seed mix, though, so I was able to see that my hammie found the pellets in about 2 seconds flat, so I had visual confirmation that he was getting at least some food.
I also weigh him pretty regularly because I'm a nervous first time hamster owner. I have a little digital food scale and during play pen time I'll put a sunflower seed on the scale and he'll crawl up there.
