As far as I remember, sciplore is not only extracting metadata embedded in th pdf, but also from the text - they submit it to a server which uses the academic article and compares it to layouts from different publishers and uses those to extract bibliographic information from the text. If that is what you want, then it might be considerably more difficult then just extracting embedded metadata.
