There are two choices that I know of:

purge, which is here:

http://www.cache.dfn.de/DFN-Cache/Development/purge.html

This can give you a list of all cached objects, and can do lots of fun 
stuff.

And then, I've written a set of tools in Perl, which does a similar job, 
but does so by first building a database in SQLite to maintain the 
object list:

http://swelltech.com/support/updates/7.x/RPMS/purge-tools-0.981-1.noarch.rpm

Unfortunately, I only have the RPM version available at the moment.  I'm 
working on a projects page to somewhat document and provide tarballs and 
packages of all the utilities I've written for Squid.  But I haven't 
gotten to writing up the purge tools package yet.  In short, it provides 
a CGI interface and a command line interface to do purges and refreshes 
of cached objects (or at least, that's its goal, some of the features 
don't work yet).

Given the very beta status of the purge tools I've written, I'd suggest 
purge above...Unless you must have a database of those objects.

Anyway, both tools pull the URLs directly from the objects in cache 
directories (this info is contained in the metadata that prepends each 
object).
