If the bibtext file is available, it can be easy converted to XML
using bib2xml [1] from the bibutils package [2]. Then, parsing the XML
is quite easy.
I don't know of a solution to extract the references from the LaTeX
file. However, if there isn't any tool or easy procedure do it, it's
still possible to write a custom lexical parser with some existing
tools [3].
