After thinking about it again and reading Seerah's example, I think it was just something like looping through the children of UIParent or WorldFrame, or something like this. As you create a frame with no parent by calling CreateFrame'Frame', this method wouldn't work.
The only way I can think of to gain access to this frame (without editing your code) would be to hook CreateFrame or one of the methods that you use on the frame, using an addon loaded before yours. I'm not sure how the hook would recognize your frame among the other frames created though. Using debugstack() would probably work?
