I can't quite see why you'd need to distinguish between the two, but
you could parse the results of [env QUERY_STRING] to verify the source
of a [cgi] variable.

Also, check the value of the TolerateGet directive in your interchange.cfg
file (defaults to "No").  If TolerateGet is "No" and [env REQUEST_METHOD]
is "POST" then [cgi] will only contain POSTed variables.  If the request
method is "GET" then [cgi] will only contain URI parameters.  If
TolerateGet is "Yes" then [cgi] may contain a mix of POSTed values and
URI parameters.
