Look at the Google's Geolocation API Network Protocol.

There you can see the example JSON object like that:

"wifi_towers": [
    {
      "mac_address": "01-23-45-67-89-ab",
      "signal_strength": 8,
      "age": 0
    },
    {
      "mac_address": "01-23-45-67-89-ac",
      "signal_strength": 4,
      "age": 0
    }
  ]

**Google Gears API is no longer available
