I say you just open the services file readonly.. running that command opens up a new can of worms as far as security is concerned. You'll also save yourself a fork-and-exec in the process and some IPC as well.. I'm not aware of any way to pipe the output directly back into memory, it would need to be written to disk or to a FIFO, adding much more overhead for a very simple thing.
