If the statistics are current the dba_tables.blocks X the dba_tablespace.block_size will give the amount of space being used to hold table rows plus the overhead in use. In this case the overhead would also include available space within the blocks but this is more accurate measurement of the necessary space than just the number of extents allocated.
