You need to look at the var/covar matrix in e(V). You can get the standard
errors as the square roots of the diagonal elements. You need to calculate
your own confidence intervals from this using info about d.f. For example:
svymean x1 x2
mat v=e(V)
mat b=e(b)
scalar tval= invttail(`e(df_r)',.025)
scalar x1ci95lo=b[1,1]-sqrt(v[1,1])*tval
scalar x1ci95hi=b[1,1]+sqrt(v[1,1])*tval
scalar x2ci95hi=b[1,2]+sqrt(v[2,2])*tval
