Why does gui->GetZoom( *Node, &Zoom ) return zero?
I need it to scale user area appropriately inside the nodes.

Not entirely accurate; it just multiplies your passed value by 1.0... ;-)

Jokes aside there are two important things to know about GetZoom:
1. The node you pass must be the group node, i.e. not the node itself. So do node->GetUp() until you find a node->IsGroupNode(). (Normally just one step up.)
2. The return value isn't the zoom but the passed value times zoom. So to get the zoom you must pass 1.0 to the function, not 0.0. (The zoom of non-group nodes is 1.0.)
