I'm a pretty belligerent person and I've decided that in order to up the hilarity of owning some poor souls I want to do it with the device in the link below.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16878104099&cm_re=arcade_fight_stick-_-78-104-099-_-Product

Does anyone know how to map an arcade stick's joystick to the mouse & and the buttons to various keys?

Use JoyToKey. Works really well for binding controllers and such. I used it for my 360 controller, but it works for PS3 and I'm sure Wii as well.

Autohotkey:

70$ for stick is a pure steal btw. Why not get an encoder like the I-Pac and build your own personal, shiny "SC2 STICK !" yourself ? :-))

i dont think this is a good idea since the speed of mouse cursor when you use joystick is constant, for mouse its adjusted by your hand speed. this will cause your reaction slower overall. not counting this will cost you 2 hands to use so there will be no hotkeys.
Im daed. Follow me @TL_NB
