You can't derive the proper account from the GCLID alone.

Can you get more info where the GCLID came from? For instance, if you know 
the website domain where it was issued you probably know which account was 
involved. And if the accounts advertise to multiple websites, changing all 
the time, you could some software that regularly retrieves all final URLs 
from all accounts, then stores the website domains in a local database.
Then, when you are asked about a website/GCLID combination, lookup the 
website in your local database, see which account(s) that website is 
related too, then try those accounts for the GCLID.
