This is how I did it in Java: 

 LocalLBPoolMemberBindingStub f5_pm_obj = (LocalLBPoolMemberBindingStub) new LocalLBPoolMemberLocator().getLocalLBPoolMemberPort(new URL(f5_address));  
 LocalLBNodeAddressBindingStub f5_na_obj = (LocalLBNodeAddressBindingStub) new LocalLBNodeAddressLocator().getLocalLBNodeAddressPort(new URL(f5_address));  
    
 LocalLBPoolMemberMemberSessionStatus[] serverStatuses = f5_pm_obj.get_session_status(new String[] {"pool_name"})[ 0 ];  
    
 nodeIndex = 0;        
 String nodeAddress = serverStatuses[nodeIndex].getMember().getAddress();  
 String hostname = f5_na_obj.get_screen_name(new String[] {nodeAddress})[ 0 ];
