If you install the OpenSim 4.2 beta, there is a new component called the Blankevoort1991Ligament. This component has an output called "length"
You can find an example of the xml structure here (or in Help->XML Browser in OpenSim 4.2 GUI):

Here is a doxygen page since I don't think there is one published online for 4.2 yet.

If you are using the existing Ligament component, you can use the getLength (const SimTK::State &s) function.
