X11 doesn't have any Applescript dictionary, so I rather doubt there
is any easy way to get it. In the X11 world there is xwininfo. Try
running the command

  xwininfo -root -tree

for example: It will give you geometry information for all X11
windows. I have no idea how to parse the output using applescript,
though.
