To make sure that the data you are looking for is even available I recommend adding an info app before calling the Lua script:
<action application="info"/>

Watch the console and it will spit out a bunch of information. Find the data field that contains the information you seek. Check out this page for more information on the different channel variables:
http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Channel_Variables

Once you know which channel var has the data you're looking for then it's easy to get it with session:getVariable("var_name")

I placed the script in the public context and tried that, but it shows nothing.  In the default context, it will show 1002.  But in public, it shows nothing.

try rdnis

But you could put your lua script in your public context, where the  
calls are handled first.
I dont really see the point to do that in default.
