I was having the same problem just now and I came up with this:

$("iframe").contents().find("body").mousemove(function(cursor){
        $("#console").html(cursor.pageX+":"+cursor.pageY);
    });
    $(document).mousemove(function(cursor){
        $("#console").html(cursor.pageX+":"+cursor.pageY);
    });

.contents().find("body") grabs the contents inside the iframe and .mousemove() can be used to add an event listener
