I want to do it using http://en.wiktionary.org/w/api.php the api. something like that, I will give the input word and get the details from wiktionary. like this page
http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/sleep
I want to parse the all info from this page.

I have used this http://en.wiktionary.org/w/api.php?action=opensearch&search=sleep&format=xml&limit=1
and
after parsing the xml files its returns "From slǣp, from Germanic."  i want to parse the noun and verb section.
