There's some company (can't remember the name) that has a product called 
ADAM (Advanced Data Aquisition Module) that can monitor electric 
currents in wires, but only if you patch the cable to the siren through 
it. This might reduce security of the alarm though, so you're probably 
better off with a decibel-meter or sound-detector. Those too can most 
likely be plugged in to the ADAM module. I've got a plugin for the adam 
stuff, but it's closed source (company time sort of thing) and would 
most likely need an update. Let me know if you're interested and I'm 
sure we can arrange something cheap.
