how to view only custom attribute
Someone else probably has a better way, but this might work for you:
1. Do a plain install of FIM 2010 in a test environment.
2. Use the Export-FIMConfig PowerShell cmdlet to dump out the attributes (the schema) for both your test and production environments.
3. Use the Join-FIMConfig and/or Compare-FIMConfig to compare the two exports.
See Forefront Identify Manager Cmdlets in Windows PowerShell for more information.

Every object has a CreatedTime. So you can glean the date from at default attribute such as "AccountName". you can then run a query like
$results = Export-FIMConfig -OnlyBaseResources -CustomConfig "/AttributeTypeDescription[CreatedTime >= '2011-11-30']"
In my case I got 27 results back.
you can look at an individual record
$results[0].ResourceManagementObject.ResourceManagementAttributes | ft
AttributeName HasReference IsMultiValue Values Value
------------- ------------ ------------ ------ -----
ObjectID False False
urn:uuid:9c98365...
CreatedTime False False

but I suspect you are also interested in what Object Types these attributes are bound to. you can do that a few ways but one way and probably no so elegant is loop through your new attributes and query the BindingDescription. Obviously, replace
'Account Name' with your variable in the for loop
$Objectbindings = Export-FIMConfig -OnlyBaseResources -CustomConfig "/BindingDescription[DisplayName = 'Account Name']"
ie foreach ($Binding in $Objectbindings) {write-host $Binding.DisplayName}
