Getting resource info out of UNIX kernels generically

I have been asked to pull out, on a regular basis, information from the UNIX (and NT) kernel using PERL. These may include basic performance metrics, etc., and CPU info ... The problem is that I have been asked to do it generically for MOST flavours of UNIX and worst of all, NT. Does anyone know if this is possible?

My thought processes so far ...
-> /dev/kmem ... but you would need to break down the memory into its components... Are these published?
-> libraries for PERL but I have not found any yet.

Thanks in advance.
