The only answer I know that would do what you want is QuicKeys.

QK Macros will deliver mouse events, etc to any window using a variety of
reference points.  It is very Applescriptable(two-way), can hold/define
variables in its own namespace (thus available across apps), do repeat loops
based on counters and variables and results.

If you use a rev app in the Parallels window to report its screenLoc, your
OSX app could track this and adjust, and can also send confirmation of a
mouse click received (and the result of the click)
