    Does anybody know if it is possible to grab current xbox live stats for games?

    Yes, heh... actually one of my sons buddies were talking about how to do that the other day.

    I think from gamercard.xbox.com or live.xbox.com

    You would need to set up a cronjob or similar to run a a script for fetching and update a database from which you pull the data.

    Or something like it anyhoo...

    :)

    The best way would be to get a MSN developer API key
    Unfortuately they dont seem to be giving any away so your best bet is to cron + scrape like wing said!
