Or you could have a single function that all buttons use:

var count:uint = 0;

function buttonPress(e:MouseEvent):void {
  count++;

if (count == 3) {
trace("Thanks for clicking all 3 movieclips!");

//reset count if required
//count = 0;
}

}

You want to store if they have been clicked where each of you listeners can access, for example:

var clicked1:Boolean = false;
var clicked2:Boolean = false;
var clicked3:Boolean = false;

Then inside of your action listener method(s):

function listenerMethod1(e:MouseEvent):void {
  clicked1 = true;
  checkIfAllClicked();
}

function listenerMethod2(e:MouseEvent):void {
  clicked2 = true;
  checkIfAllClicked();
}

function listenerMethod3(e:MouseEvent):void {
  clicked3 = true;
  checkIfAllClicked();
}

etc... (alternatively you can handle all 3 movieClip events in the same handler method). Don't forget the checking function:

function checkIfAllClicked(){
  if(clicked1 && clicked2 && clicked3){
    trace("Thanks for clicking all 3 movieclips!");
  }
}

Depending on what you are doing you can have a reset method as well to reset all 3 to false.

If you have a big mass of movieclips you can consider using a collection, such as a Vector<Boolean>.
