AirPort Utility

You should run the Apple AirPort Utility app for about 60 seconds so it can collect enough data (but NOT more than 90 seconds as that will be too much data) to create an survey file as output.

We are NOT aware of any open sourced iOS app that will tell you the mac address of access points around you.
