How can I get list of all users reporting to perticular user using UserProfileManager?

Question
I can see that UserProfileManager class does have a method GetManager() to pull manager from users profile but I don't see any thing which returns list of all users currently reporting to particular user. I am wondering if there is any workaround.
SPSite site;
SPWeb web;
SPServiceContext serviceContext;
UserProfileManager profiles;
UserProfile profile;
try
{
using (site = new SPSite(SPContext.Current.Web.Url))
{
using (web = site.OpenWeb())
{
serviceContext = SPServiceContext.GetContext(site);
profiles = new UserProfileManager(serviceContext);
//Getting the profile of logged in user.
profile = profiles.GetUserProfile(web.CurrentUser.LoginName);
//Getting profile of the manager of the logged in user.
profile = profile.GetManager();
}
}
}
catch { }
Solution
You do indeed have methods for getting manager, peers and direct reports:
// Check whether the user profile and the manager user profile exist, and that they are not
// the same user.
if (userProfileManager.UserExists(loginName))
{
// Retrieve the user profile.
UserProfile userProfile = userProfileManager.GetUserProfile(loginName);
// Get the user's multiple levels of managers, peers, and direct reports.
managers = new List<UserProfile>(userProfile.GetManagers());
peers = new List<UserProfile>(userProfile.GetPeers());
directReports = new List<UserProfile>(userProfile.GetDirectReports());
}
Works in 2007, should be same in 2010: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc973103(v=office.12).aspx
