I realize this is a very old thread, but I just stumbled across it and thought it was worth following up.

Oddly enough, I recently released the first beta of a Calibre plugin that does pretty much what you were describing here.

Calibre Awards searches a number of literary award sources, including Hugo, Pulitzer, Nebula, Locus, World Fantasy and Nobel, and can optionally write selected results to a custom Calibre column.

The plugin thread is here:

What's funny is that I had never seen this post before developing the plugin. Reading your description from 2023 now is a little eerie.
