X-ray off-specular diffuse scattering is used to directly probe the statistical distribution of domains in monolayers of F(CF2)(10)(CH2)(2)OH adsorbed at the hexane-water interface. These domains appear very near a transition from a monolayer solid to gas phase. The domains have a nearly constant radius of approximate to 1.5 mum and a nearest-neighbor separation that varies from 2 to 8 mum with temperature. Evidence that the domains are of equilibrium size suggests that the domain line tension, lambda(t) approximate to 3 x 10(-11) N, can be determined.
