    You'd have to do some massaging of data, but that's what the Unihan database is for. Start with http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr38/.

    There are a lot of products out there that are available, BTW. If you look up "Unihan database" on Wikipedia, there are a number of links at the bottom you might find useful.
