\makeatletter
\setlenght{\textareaheight}{\pd@@textheight}
\makeatother
Define (in the preamble) a macro that you can use on the first line of a slide:
\makeatletter
\newcommand\setmylength{%
\setlength\textareaheight{\pd@@textheight}%
}
\makeatother
but it seems that this variable - or key, following my understandings of
xkeyval - is set only localy inside the style file.
It is variable over styles, so one slide to the other might change
yes, if the style changes.
I need this value because the text-area of my wideslide and slide
enviroments differ in height, and I want to give users the opportunity
to draw a pspicture with size (\textwidth x \textareaheight) for freely
placing things via \rput commands using positioning like ( 0.5\textwidth
x 0.8\textareaheight).
See an example below.

\documentclass{powerdot}
\newlength\textareaheight
\newlength\textareawidth
\makeatletter
\newcommand\setmylengths{%
\setlength\textareaheight\pd@@textheight
\setlength\textareawidth\pd@@textwidth
}
\makeatother
\begin{document}
\begin{slide}{title}
\setmylengths
\psframe(0,0)(\textareawidth,-\textareaheight)
\end{slide}
\end{document}
