I do have a tool (named 'pkginfo', funnily enough) which does parse them:
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pkginfo
http://pythonhosted.org/pkginfo/
I use it in another tool, 'compoze', which allows me to build "cureated"
indexes from versions installed locally (e.g., after testing in a
virtualenv):
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/compoze/
http://docs.repoze.org/compoze/
