I recently did a research mini-project for a startup in Shanghai and I found this site useful: http://xyo.net. They have apps data by iOS/Android by category by country.

Agree with t0 that screen scrape will do in most case. Download free version from screen-scraper.com and go through their tutorial. I have no tech background by manage to scrape information I need.

Good luck.

Wow, especially your xyo.net suggestion is really awesome. Seems they don't offer a complete data set, but a lot of good data indeed. I wonder why I didn't find this site with google.
