Hmmm, think that's in the XML.
Ex. mame.exe -listxml
Ex. mame.exe -listxml > c:\blah\blah.xml

You'll have to parse it. Also, IIRC it's really only going to list the refresh at start, not all the possible refreshes a game may have.

There's probably some 3rd party scene tool that pretties up the output for ya, tho.
