Create a file containing one lujvo per line, and do

vlatai -el < filename

You will get the expansions out in square brackets. Admittedly, it's
then some kind of job for sed or perl to extract these fields. Example:
file containing

jbofi'e
vlatai

spits out

jbofi'e : lujvo : jbofi'e [lojbo+finpe]
vlatai : lujvo : vlatai [valsi+tarmi]

Having something that would run as a web-page applet would be a good
thing.
