We use pkgsrc from NetBSD so things are a bit different. See NetBSD's 
documentation at:

http://www.netbsd.org/Documentation/pkgsrc

You can use the binary packages provided on several sites. See the 
"pkgsrc binary mirrors" section on 
http://www.dragonflybsd.org/community/download.shtml.

For xorg you need to have the following packages:

modular-xorg-apps
modular-xorg-fonts
modular-xorg-drivers
modular-xorg-server
xterm

To add binary packages, use pkg_add(1).

Example:

% setenv PKG_PATH 
http://www.theshell.com/pub/DragonFly/packages/stable/DragonFly-1.10/All
% pkg_add modular-xorg-apps
% pkg_add modular-xorg-fonts
% ...

You can also use the full URL of a package (make sure to use the All/ 
subdirectory so that dependencies are found).

Regards,
Sascha
