The AppKit function NSWindowList will give a list of window numbers in
an front-to-back order. This is the only way to globally distinguish
window depths in a legal (i.e. not through private API) fashion. I'd
like to use this info to augment the accessibility I am offering but
the accessibility API doesn't seem to offer such information.
Programmatically, two windows with the same dimensions and location
will appear identical through the accessibility API. This is not
sufficient for my needs.
Thanks for any help you can offer!

How did you get the window number in the first place?
