There is no direct way to get this information from the API. The API will contextually indicate the accounts the "current user" blocks but it does not go the other way.
GET http://api.twitter.com/1/blocks/blocking.json and GET http://api.twitter.com/1/blocks/blocking/ids.json are the relevant methods. Aggregating and surfacing this information for purposes outside of the "current user" context would definitely be a case of "surprising users" though. Data about who a user who has blocked should remain private to that user alone.
