"Screen Scraping" seems to be a sort of misnomer here. Essentially they are just loading a URL and extracting the information from whatever is returned. Whether that happens intelligently, or if they are just making specific scrapers for each bank, I have no idea.
But basically, 'look for the number in this div region, this is the account balance'.. etc.
