Every request to the API returns a request object, allowing you to track the request's progress or general information about the request. You need to add a handler for a request part received.

Here is the sample code:

part.addListener("request", function(received) {
    // Calculate upload progress
    var progress = (stream.bytesReceived / stream.bytesTotal * 100).toFixed(2);
    var mb = (stream.bytesTotal / 1024 / 1024).toFixed(1);

    sys.debug("Uploading " + mb + "mb (" + progress + "%)");

You can find the documentation in this blog.
