Reading Game Achievements

Hey Guys,

I was thinking of developing an app that allows the user to aggregate all their achievements they've received within a mobile game.

For instance, if i have a bunch of achievements i've hit in angry birds, (insert any game with achievements system), by achievements a comparison is xbox live achievements or psn achievements.

would it be difficult to create an app that would aggregate all the achievements I've earned in multiple games into one app, so I can see all the achievements i've earned?

I know this is at technical question, but hoepfully someone can answer and at least let me know if this would be a programming nightmare.

EDIT: Sorry, don't mean all games, but the most popular ones for example, like fruit ninja and angry birds. Like the top 10 or 20 most downloaded games from android marketplace.

EDIT 2: Assuming that you do get developer cooperation, what type of code would you need to provide them in order for them to easily synch with your app?

Thanks,
 
I am not a developer, but I think this is going to be a programming nightmare.
If you can get this going, I would be extremely happy :)
But there are issues with recognising the achievements, and I guess that the other app developers won't like what you are doing :/
I'm not sure about this, but I think it would be a waste of time since it would be impossible to collect all of the games in one place.
