I don't have a direct answer for you. It may not be possible. Depending on what you're trying to do, you may be able to actually use the wildcard version. For example, the shell command: mdfind 'kMDItemContentType == "com.apple.iwork.*"' works, as should the comparable NSMetadataQuery-based code. There's also this: /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -dump which includes the info you're looking for.
