I haven't worked with this part, Jacques has and probably has a better
answer.  But maybe this can help if there isn't a way yet: looking at
the makesdna dir/ , since we don't have an Action module, it's probably
possible to hack something in, by looking at a global list of actions, 
finding the one that owns a particular ipo in one of its channels and
then grabbing this action's id.name.  If doable, it's surely easier to
code it than to understand this paragraph : ) ...

Talking about the Armature module?  Well, Jordi added that one, but he's
not around now, so I've been taking care of it, slowly learning about
armatures / bones.

If what you want is the quaternion of the bone, it's in bone.quat, or
method bone.getQuat().  To get access to the bones, use
armature.getBones().
