For the "how" part, why not simply use SNMP.  Sensor monitoring is included in 
net-snmp 5.4.1 (and other versions).  It currently uses the LM-SENSORS-MIB, 
which is really old and clumsy and designed specifically for the LM75 chip.

I'd like to see us create a new, up-to-date MIB to specifically support Sun 
sensors, but given this is an open source project, perhaps we could approach 
the open source sensors community and work towards a common MIB.
