Finding the information of routers in range of my mobile using android WiFi API

I want to create an android application which uses WiFi router information. Using android WiFi API, I am able to get all the information of all WiFi networks available but I want to find the information or unique identity of routers to which my mobile is in range of.

Is there any way to get this information ?

this snippet of working code (which i cant repost because of anti spamming policy in SO) extracts everything from connected wifi, stored networks on device and available networks in "sight" of device.

when you say "unique identity", i imagine that you mean a wifi router's MAC address (which is called BSSID, "getMacAddress" being reserved for the DEVICE's mac address).
