Looking for App Store Data Scraper

I have seen a few leads on how to scrape data from the App Store. But no direct downloads to working software or scripts (other than DIY in Charles). I need to extract App Store data on games for a review website. I will likely be posting a project on Elance, but I wanted to see if anyone has any suggestions, or links.
For starters, I just need to output data to .csv format. Later on, I may adopt a more direct and automated approach, until them, I need to populate the pages, and I can import using .csv.

Hey there!
I'm a former app developer myself actually.. though we now runs a small company that focuses on collecting data from the app stores. (bit of a messy job!) We have a number of different feed formats that I think would be great for you... there is a monthly cost involved but it beats the heck out of building and maintaining your own crawlers :) Let me know, I've got a database schema and a data sample I can send over by email if you're interested.
Cheers,
Jeremy
