Parsing the title is a bit risky, it seems to me. I'd rather try parsing any <meta> tag with a name containing "series" or "series number", that would at least catch calibre's tags and some other custom tags other creators may be adding.
You could say calibre IS the specification, in a way... First Mover advantage and all that.

Is there, in fact, any other program that embeds series-type metadata?
