I did something like that, for a project that never got completed .... :-(

script was very simple, something like

put url "http://www.whois.net/whois.cgi2?d=tweedly.net" into tData
put lineOffset( "<pre>", tData) into t
delete line 1 to t of tData
put lineOffset("</pre>", tData) into t
delete line  t to -1  of tData
put tData after msg

probably with some error checking added :-)
