Males tend to have broader heads; and bulges in the base of their tales where the hemipenes lie.

If you have a little one, it doesn't matter as it will grow really quick.

May I ask, why you are so interested?

Well, we love our monitor, he/she is apart of the family. We would eventually like to breed it. We breed ball pythons and crested geckos and would eventually like to breed AWM's. I know most lizards have the hemipene bulges at the base of the tail, but I was under the impression that in AWM's it is much less noticeable. Our little Guy/girl is around 32" or so (about 12" SVL). Here are a few pics I have available on my phone. I know they don't show the tail area very well.

This first one was from a month or so ago, he/she is a little bigger.
