I have text that displays the part mass in modeling so I can see it update as I work. I'd also like to do that with the centroid and Moment of Inertia Values but I'm not sure how to make an associative relationship.

This was easy to do with Part Mass. I just did an associative Body Measurement on my part and it assigned it a p-value. Used text then as <w@part_mass> and finished. Any ideas? I use NX9.
 
For the centroid, the measure bodies command will create a point at the centroid. You can then use the measure point command to create associative expression(s) to extract the X, Y, Z location information.
