Java How to find xterm ipaddress?

There is a linux server in my team where everyone is using xterm to connect to the server and work.
Problem is I'm unable to find the ipaddress of the xterm user. It just shows the display as "localhost".
Code:
example:
st_capuk@MGTS5026-13sh1:~> ps -eaf | grep xterm
1010      9328  9327  0 May07 ?        00:00:00 /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm -ls -display localhost:10.0
1038     23792 23791  0 May14 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/X11/xterm -ls -display localhost:13.0
ss_hlr1  30095 30094  0 May15 ?        00:00:00 /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm -ls -display localhost:14.0
ss_rn    12354 12353  0 May16 ?        00:00:00 /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm -ls -display localhost:16.0
1039     12649 12648  0 May16 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/xterm -ls -display localhost:18.0

Where st_capuk is the only user using putty, others use terminals invoked using xterm command.
