No, seriously, just assume any hired unit has a number of attributes and one of which mentions its commander. This enables for coding this quite easily. I wouldn't be surprised if the player stats file already has a '#hirednpcs' in it. Hubtou has actually been able to list this number in the faction roll for his server hARDA since ... early 2015. Maybe he just used it or wrote a tiny bit of code to derive it.
