I've put a demonstration of a 'flight data recorder' in
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~ickle/cairo/tree/util/cairo-fdr/fdr.c?h=wip/stroke-to-path

It's still a preloaded library, so it's not directly usable on win32,
but I think very easy to convert into a wrapper for you to use inside
your own application. However, it does depend upon a new 'tee-surface'
that I just added to wip/stroke-to-path...
