How to determine tiles intersecting map extent?

Question

Does anyone know how to calculate the z, x, and y for all tiles intersecting a given map extent?

I need to pre-load a bunch of tiles for an animation.

I am using the standard web mercator google/bing/esri map tiling scheme.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
