Communication between Chrome Extension and Theme?

I create a Chrome Extension and I have a theme too. In the extension I made a link to the theme (kind of self advertising). I want to hide this link if the theme is in use.

I know extensions can pass messages if their ID is known. But is there a way to check if given theme is in use, as themes has their own id too? I tried:

chrome.extension.sendRequest(string extensionId, any request, function responseCallback);

but it does not work, as there is no way to respond with Theme. Only thing I need is the javascript code for this. No more, no less. Thanks in advance!

Theme has unique ID (you can get it from webstore URL), so you can check if it is installed using chrome.management.getAll() method.
