Using layers will be an easier option.
You can abuse the cut-n-paste module
(http://github.com/adityam/cut-n-paste) to add pagenumbers in an easy way.
\definenumber[whatever]
\unexpanded\def\PAGENUMBER%
{\incrementnumber[whatever]%
\getnumber[whatever]}
\usemodule[cut-n-paste]
\starttext
\processcutNpaste
[%option=test,
text={Page~\PAGENUMBER},
location={(OverlayWidth/2, 1cm)},
name=file]
\stoptext
Here name=<filename> that you want to include.
The text is placed by metapost, so the location parameter must be some
dimension that metapost understands, and the lowerleft corner is origin.
Uncomment option=test to get a grid to measure stuff.
If you have to include many pdf files, you can do
\defincutNpaste[PageNumber][...] %options
\processPageNumber[name=file1]
\processPageNumber[name=file2]
etc.
