You'll end up reading the coordinates from inside the Flash IDE or by using a tool like Swfmill, but just for sports, and with the limitation that it needs to be convex, this is the easiest way I can think of: Rotate it slowly. Use getRect to find out how far it extends towards, say, the right, at a given rotation. When that distance decreases, it's a point, and you can calculate its coordinate via the distance and rotation. Repeat until you've made a full turn. If it's not convex, I guess you'd need to trace it...
