var time = OS.get_datetime()
var dayofweek = time["weekday"]
print(str(dayofweek))

It seems that if you need more than OS offers you would have to extend python and the MS is probably not going to work. Definitely possible to write a module that uses the internal frame clock along with OS datetime module to track the actual time down to MS.

What are you trying to do?
