You don't use the mux register to read the AUX_ADCs. See
usrp/host/lib/usrp_{basic,standard}.h for docs on all of this stuff.
See especially usrp_basic_rx::read_aux_adc and
usrp_basic_tx::read_aux_adc

The second version has a python binding:
v = u.read_aux_adc(0, 0)
where u is an instance of a usrp.source_c or usrp.sink_c

The bad news is that these are read asynchronously using a slow path
over the USB. You probably can't read them fast enough to sample to
your 1K/sec signal, and the sampling is asynchronous.
