I think the best would be to activate WMI on the Windows boxes and
then write a script using DBD::WMI that you run on the linux box to
read out the information:

This is also the way in which most discovery/inventory tooling works.
It's much easier in my opinion than to deploy some CGI script or other
daemon to all your Windows machines.
