Pls can you expand on each of your proposals. The end goal which you might find interesting is to benchmark the text localisation and segmentation capability against dataset. The aim is to fully understand how good the detector in tesseract is.
I understand that tesseract uses leptonica for this purpose. So I am looking for the shortest path to my goal.

However if you'd decide to dive into programming, a better way of getting rects is using the ResultIterator/PageIterator interface. Also you can benefit of knowing that generation of .box files also provides you with rect coords... You can count lines, calculate widths and heights... There's a number of text file processing utilities... Well, probably you know what to do. Btw examining control paths used to generate .box files is a good point to devise your own blob rect dumper with minimal effort.
