You can get the WM from our white matter segmentation (wmparc.mgz and 
stats table wmparc.stats). You'd need to pick the cortical labels that 
you want to define as the "frontal lobes". You should create a binary 
mask with mri_binarize, passing the indices of the segments you want to 
use with the --match option, then load the mask in tkmedit to see 
whether it is what you expect. You can do a similar thing with the gray 
matter, but you can get the volumes from the ?h.aparc.astats
