In general we don't recommend screen scrapping yum output, writing a yum script is often significantly easier (and supported). For what I _think_ you are trying to do above, you probably just want "yum list updates" or "yum check-update" output.
and if you feel you MUST use a script to do this: look at repoquery from yum-utils.
