Just brainstorming here, not sure if this will work. Can you not put a box or something on the stage that is the same size as the stage. If you can access individual components on the stage then get the size of this box and you will know the size of the stage. Just my $0.02 worth

Unfortunately the data that defines the stage size is not directly available in AS code. I believe it is only in the swf file's header, so you would actually have to do a lot of work to figure out what size the swf should be masked at.
