Maybe pgreplay can give you some inspiration:

Check out parse.c which parses a log file.
One bit of advice I'd like to give you is a recommendation
to use the CSV log format. The regular error log is much
harder to parse, and moreover everything that gets printed
to stderr by the server will end up there. This could be
dumps when the server runs out of memory or stuff that loaded
modules produce. All this will screw up your log file
parsing.
Yours,
