Damn right its possible!
px, py = GetPlayerMapPosition( "player" );
px is the px coord and y is the y coord. you can use
cx, cy = GetCursorPosition();
to get the coords of the mouse you can change the vars if you want.

Hope it helps,

I dont believe it is possible to send data to a server or get from a server. I made a topic on it yesterday to make sure though.

I believe there is a guild tracking system addon that does this, however I would have to be running it as well and we would both have to be in the same kissie kissie channel or what not. Its included in some 'guild must have' comp pack.

If you're looking for a mod that gives you your coords you're just looking for SilverLoc
(Search the download section)
Others available but Silver's is the most unobtrusive / light one.
