Unfortunately at this point in time Adium does not support parsing the contents of received messages within a script. Please see:

http://trac.adiumx.com/ticket/6214

Without being able to look at the contents of a chat, you won't be able to tell what the person at the other end sent you.

I wouldn't hold my breath for it. If you search the forums you will find a message or two about this. It's not as simple as it might seem. I seem to remember that the functionality is dependent on another feature that was being worked on, I'm not sure of the status. The trac I mentioned has been open for 2 years.
