I know of no generic way to get at the MAC address at the HID level, which is how my library is talking to the device.

If you're using the latest version of my library, the ID or HIDDevicePath can be used to distinguish between Wiimotes.

But the ID or HIDDevicePath is not unique? or it is? I though that it was generated every time the application starts, or im wrong?

ID is unique per session.  HIDDevicePath is unique as long as the Wiimote remains in the Bluetooth device list, which could be across reboots depending on the stack and how it connects things.
