I believe the TODO entries are saved as special properties, so you
should be able to access them using the properties API, which I have
found easy to use (and I'm far from facile with elisp).

(info "(org)Special Properties")

(info "(org)Using the property API")

although I don't know how you would cycle through all of the headers
in an org file...
