I appreciate the plugs for Security Center and would point out that for 500 computers or less, it lists for $15k. I recently had a chance to speak with an individual who worked 3-4 months developign a tool to do things like Security Center and ended up getting bonus-ed more than the actual cost of SC3.
As for developing you project, I would also suggest you take a look at the tool offered by John Gray. http://mail.nessus.org/pipermail/nessus/2008-January/018114.html http://www.agora-net.com/NRF.zip This tool can load the .nessus file format and sort results.
