There is the Native WiFi API. (For XP requires SP2/3, min server 2k8)

You can list enabled adapters with WlanEnumInterfaces.

You can fetch state with WlanQueryInterface with wlan_intf_opcode_interface_state to request the state in a WLAN_CONNECTION_ATTRIBUTES struct.

An alternative are the MSNDIS WMI Classes.
