I wouldn't bother trying to remedy this unless its a SIGNIFICANT problem. That is, you are actually forming puddles in your bathroom floor from the condensation.

Assuming you want to remedy, here's what to do: Get a Toilet Anti-Sweat Valve and kit mentioned by one of your other answerers. WHat this does is mix a little bit of water from your hot water line into the cold in order to bring the water to about room temperature. As long as the water in your toilet is about room temperature, it won't chill the porcelean and attract humidity in the air to give up the ghost.

You can see the issue here. If it's a first floor bathroom with open ceiling the basement and easy access to a hot water line, then this repair may be fairly easy -- especially if you don't mind cutting into pipe and firing up the soldering torch.

If you have to start cutting into walls, etc for a 2nd floor bathroom, it's going to be expensive. So, fire up your AC and fugheddiboudit.

Hey,
Hyperhidrosis, also known as polyhidrosis or sudorrhea means excessive sweating; sweating too much
The most active regions of perspiration include the hands, feet, armpits and the groin area because of a relatively high concentration of sweat glands in those areas.
There are two types of hyperhidrosis. Primary focal hyperhidrosis refers to overactive sweat glands that affect certain areas of the body, such as the hands, feet, face or underarms.
This form of hyperhidrosis can't be prevented and isn't contagious because it was probably inherited (although the condition may skip a generation). Secondary generalized hyperhidrosis is total body
sweating prompted by secondary medical conditions or medications.

Hope it helps.

The only reason your toilet tank would sweat so much is if you had too much ambient moisture in the air. You need to buy a dehumidifier.

Lower the humidity in the bathroom, or, in your house.
Or, provide better ventilation.
When my mother got older, she kept her house closed up and did not run AC. She wound up with puddles running off the toilet tank, which it had never done before, when the windows were kept open for cross ventilation.

This is the same technique I have taught over 138,000 men and women in 157 countries to successfully treat their excessive sweating condition over the past 7 years!

Think about it. If you take a can of soda out of the fridge and set it on the counter or where ever water in the air condenses on it because it's colder than the surrounding air.
There's not a whole lot you can do. Wrap it with one of those fuzzy pink or blue wraps. Or keep your bathroom cold. Or, take cold showers.

You have to get a line to insulate it, available at hardware and building stores in the plumbing section.
