Add-on Android / Google Play apps embed

I would love to have the ability to embed app information from Appbrain or Playboard (Can't use Google Play as they have a cap on requests/IP - I think...).

Appbrain would probably be the best option as they offer an API: http://www.appbrain.com/info/api


The best way to do it would probably be to add a button somewhere that would open a pop-up where you could search either Appbrain or Playboard in order find and embed information about an application.

Or maybe fetch ID from the play store URL: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftFWHM

ie: "com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftFWHM"

Use it to gather the relevant information via either:

Appbrain: http://www.appbrain.com/search?q=com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftFWHM&src=home&sort=relevancy

or

Playboard: http://playboard.me/android/search/apps?q=com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftFWHM


I'm sure that there would be a way to do the same for Apples app-store. Probably better to separate them as two different add-ons though.
