The libvirt getOSType is probably misnamed; you are referring to the
Java bindings, but it is a wrapper around the C api virDomainGetOSType,
which in turn is merely a shorthand for accesssing part of the domain
XML for determining whether your guest is hardware-accelerated (kvm) or not.

But the question you are asking is an easy task for libguestfs; in
particular, the virt-inspector command is able to tell you quite a bit
of information about the OS running in your guest.  Libguestfs also
comes with Java bindings, but this is probably not the best list for
getting help with using libguestfs.

Not yet.  Nehal is working on adding such an API, but it has been slow
going, because the problem is not very straightforward.
