It looks like you have a specific site in mind. Unless they expose the data in some way you have no means of getting it other than, perhaps, by screen scraping. You can create a web service to expose your own data to the world. If you do a search on Code Project you would find many excellent articles that will tell you how to create a web service.

If it is not your website then you would not be able to fetch name etc even if you build a website. Those who own the website, need to host this web service.

Check with the website to see if they have provided some API that helps you fetch these details.
