Please try the following Template definition --

<xsl:template match="/question">
  <xsl:for-each select="answer">
    <xsl:if test="@eval">
      Position of node (having eval attribute) --
<xsl:value-of select="position()" />
    </xsl:if>  
  </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

I hope the answer is useful..
