Well, there is something to be done with the 'page-number and
'rank-on-page properties, as demonstrated in this regtest:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/lilypond.git/plain/input/regression/multi-measure-rest-reminder.ly
The problem is that the page-breaking algorithm runs fairly late in
the process, so whenever I try adding that to the aforementioned
Grob_metadata_engraver, either ly:grob-system doesn’t return anything
or it remains stuck on 0. (The regtest I mentioned works around that
in a pretty convoluted way, by creating a new grob and then suiciding
it.)
You might want to have a look; maybe your guess’s gonna be better than mine.

I think best bet would be to post-process the final file.
We already have a post-process-hook (see Application Usage). Below I
use it to print the first BarNumber of each page. If you know the used
\tempo it should be straight forward to calculate the passed seconds.
Ofcourse any calculation of passed time fails if multiple scores are
in the file. The provided procedure is not able to distinguish.
Here the code (example_has_ multiple scores)
Output is done in terminal, output to a .log-file is possible as well,
see comment.
