You could query the database directly (if database abstraction is not
necessary for you), as I did in my Auth_phpBB plugin. Just include the
configuration file of phpbb to get the database configuration values
(host, user, password etc.) and read the values directly from the user
table using the php mysql functions (or whatever database you use).
