The document raster effects settings are stored in the document's dictionary, in another dictionary with the key string "AI Auto Rasterize". You can see its various entries by saving an Illustrator document without compression, opening it in a text editor, and searching for that string. You will see something like:

%_/Dictionary :
%_36 /Real (padd) ,
%_300 /Int (dpi.) ,
%_5 /Int (colr) ,
%_0 /Bool (mask) ,
%_1 /Bool (spot) ,
%_0 /Bool (alis) ,
%_; (AI Auto Rasterize) ,

So to get the resolution, say, you would use code as follows (error checking removed):

ai_long_t resolution = 72;
AIDictionaryRef docDict = NULL;
sAIDocument->GetDictionary( &docDict );
AIDictionaryRef rasterDict = NULL;
sAIDictionary->GetDictEntry( docDict, sAIDictionary->Key( "AI Auto Rasterize" ), &rasterDict );
sAIDictionary->GetIntegerEntry( rasterDict, sAIDictionary->Key( "dpi." ), &resolution );
sAIDictionary->Release( rasterDict );
sAIDictionary->Release( docDict );
