How to track meta information throughout a site

Question

I was wondering if there is an easy way to track meta information (keywords, descrption) and possibly page titles throughout a site and have it exported to something like an excel spreadsheet.  I'm trying to track meta and title information over time and see how changes affect google rankings.  It would be nice if I could extract the data quickly instead of going page by page.  Odd request, I know...
Thanks in advance for any help.

A good idea is to use something like Log4J to handle logging in your application. You do have to be careful if your application is clustered and there is serialization involved since your logger won't be serializable, causing clustering to fail (I swear it didn't happen to me)....
private transient Logger log = null;
protected final Logger getLogger() {
    if (this.log == null)
        this.log = LogFactory.getLogger(this.getClass());
    return this.log;
}
