This isn't possible via the API. In general the IP address is only known to the guest OS. You have to resort to playing games like sninffing the ARP packets to guess what IP the guest has, or setting upa fixed MAC address <-> IP address mapping in your DHCP server > I found out that the "vncdisplay" command option from "virsh" command line > tool provides the IP Address and port number.
