I believe the functionality you desire already exists...

tougher# wicontrol -l
NIC serial number:                      [ SN0000000001 ]
<snip>
Encryption keys:                        [  ][  ][  ][  ]
Available APs:
    OpenNAP   [ 00:02:b3:05:12:be ]  [ 11 ]  [ 21 26 5 ]  100  [ ess ]  
              [ 1.0 2.0 5.5 11.0 ]  * 1.0 *

This has only been reported to work with Prism-based cards.  In theory
it should work for Lucent/Hermes cards too.  You could also try
