If you're asking "what do we in the Real World know about the Vega
system",
I can't see how anyone could detect planetoids there. Planetoid would
tend
to be evenly distributed and therefore would have no net gravitational
effect, even if our instruments were sensitive enough to pick up the
shifts
from bodies that small. Make up what you like.
