All the transformations are recorded by OpenGL in a 4x4 matrix.
You can recover that matrix like this:

    buff = (ctypes.c_double*16)()
    pyglet.gl.glGetDoublev(stack, buff)

If you started with the identity and did no other transformations you'll 
find the 20 in that 4x4 array.

In either the [0,3] or [3,0] element.  (I've forgotten which way Opengl 
stores the array now.)
