How to find out my ping when connecting to game servers

How do find out my ping when connecting to game servers because I wanna know which server(s) to go on so I can lag less. And I can't find the ip address of the server I'm connected to.

What game?

If you know the name or Ip address of the server ,then you can test the ping by using the command "ping" in command prompt.To open command prompt Start->run->type "cmd" and press Enter.
In the command prompt window type ping ipaddress (or)ping servername .
for eg: ping 193.211.145.197 (or) ping abc.com
If you have trouble using command interface,then you can do ping test easily from websites sites like WhoisXY.com .

doing it from a website wouldn't answer the question because it would give the results of pinging the game server from that website server, not from the computer/connection wanting to run the game client.
