Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

You can use:
$myArr = `getAttr -t $myTime $myObject.wm[0]`;
xPos = $myArray[12];
yPos = $myArray[13];
zPos = $myArray[14];
this uses the world matrix to give you the exact world space position.
