What you would need to do this is a "redo log/archive file parser".  Such a
utility is not avaialable to the public, (although I'm sure the developers
should have written one).  Since the information in those files would reveal a
lot about Oracle's internal secrets as well as invalidate all database
security, I doubt such a utility will ever exist in the near future.
