lxCheck but with useful return?

Is there any way to run an XL Compliance check that returns the result in a form that could be used by a skill program?  For example one use is to write a program that checked each layout view in a library and created a web page with a XL compliance table.  lxCheck  just causes stuff to get written to CDS.log.  I guess I could use some horrible hack like

printf("XL_CHECK_START\n")

lxCheck(cv)

printf("XL_CHECK_STOP"\n")

and then try to parse that out of the CDS.log, but wow, that is a hack.
