If you're referring to "physical screen X,Y locations", then I'd use GETCPIXEL before drawing a point to see if the location was 'background color' or not. If you're referring to the "logical" X,Y location, independent of any scaling you're doing to display it on the screen, then you'll have to keep track yourself; refer to the recent Zombies discussion for ideas...
