Ben: You need several pieces of information to lookup a file information: parent directory handle and directory entry handle (which then points to the metadata handle). The directory entry handle will give you the name of a file (or directory) but the metadata handle is what gives you the attributes of the file/dir.
If you like, I can send you information on how to dump the metadata databases in ascii format and then grep for the information. Otherwise, you might want to write a program that uses the system interface calls to achieve what you want.
