Here's a fairly simple way to extract e:

$ for rdata in `dig dlv.isc.org. dnskey +short | awk '/257/ {print $4}'`; do echo $rdata | base64-decode | od -x -N4; done
0000000 0103 daa7
0000004
0000000 0301 0001
0000004

According to RFC2537 section 2, one of the KSKs of dlv.isc.org has e=3
and the other e=65537.
