Answers.Text: Thanks @petednz!  This works for us for now.  My one complaint about this method is that there really should be a way to use unique ids, e-mail addresses, etc other than just the contacts name - we are a large organization and could have a few people with the same name!

  In Advanced Search you can use the Change Log to enter the Admin's name in the 'added by' section and set it to 'Added'.
  
  You have to put in the contact's "Sort Name" in the box for this to work (as of 5.7, at least) [citing username_2's comment from below].
  
  Then you should be able to make a Smart Group from this.
