First set up the controls so that they map to the XInput device. Once that is done, right click on the button which corresponds to the control that you want to map to your mouse. In the dialog box that pops up, change the device to DInput Keyboard/Mouse and set that control to the mouse button. Press Apply and OK. Repeat for the other mouse button. Now you'll find that both your PS3 controller as well as your mouse button works.
ahh ok - I didn't know you could do that.
For the sake of information, I'll still post what I was going to say before I found your reply(since I wasn't exactly expecting one so fast):
After I posted I did some digging/research/experiments/whatever you want to call it, and found that you can change the method of control in-game for this, for controlling the pointer. There's 2 "Types": Type 1 uses the IR Sensor bar to move the pointer. Type 2 will let you use the Control Pad on the Wiimote to move the pointer. I set it to Type 2, and cross-mapped the control pad on the Wiimote to be the same as the Classic Controller attachment. After setting it up this way, it took a minute to get the hang of, but it worked out.

Edit: Tried what you mentioned, and got it working(using the "Type 1" controls for the pointer"). After using both methods for a while, I think I would prefer using Type 2, since it saves me from having to try to use 2 devices, and I don't have to take my hand off the controller to try and do it with the mouse. Your information is not wasted however, I'll surely remember it in case I need it elsewhere.
