Using the AGK.DLL is there a way to determine how far into the song is currently being played? I need to sync visual effects to specific times in the song.

C++ or whatever, I don't mind as I can translate - this is "Level 2"

There are no AppGameKit commands (any tier) at present that let you know where you are in the music.

You can write code to hopefully keep track. You can set a variable to the current time when you start the sound. Then you calculate playing time by subtracting the saved time from the current time. This works as long as the music isn't paused. If you pause the music, you'll need to keep track of paused time, or update your saved start to add time while paused.
