What you looking for called geoNameId. You could try the following API service.you have to specify the country as an ISO and recieve back info about the country include the geoNameId.

example: http://api.geonames.org/countryInfoJSON?formatted=true&lang=en&country=DE&username=demo&style=full

result:

{
  geonames: [
    {
       continent: "EU",
       capital: "Berlin",
       languages: "de",
       geonameId: 2921044, //here is the geoNameId for Germany
       south: 47.2701236047002,
       isoAlpha3: "DEU",
       north: 54.9113475100612,
       fipsCode: "GM",
       population: "81802257",
       east: 15.0418156516163,
       isoNumeric: "276",
       areaInSqKm: "357021.0",
       countryCode: "DE",
       west: 5.86625035072566,
       countryName: "Germania",
       continentName: "Europa",
       currencyCode: "EUR"
    }
  ]
}
