The easiest way might be to recreate this data with org-map-entries
instead of trying to get them from the agenda itself.

A clean rewriting of the agenda would put every agenda information in a
list, then display this info in a buffer.  This way you could well fetch
information directly in the list, not in the buffer.

That would be a nice improvement indeed -- don't expect this to happen
soon thought.

Best,
