You can trivially use pg_buffercache for view this, and its code in 
contrib/pg_buffercache will show you how to navigate the buffer cache data 
too.  There's example of how to use it in the documentation for that 
module and I've got some additional ones on my web page at 
http://www.westnet.com/~gsmith/content/postgresql in the slides and 
examples for "Inside the PostgreSQL Buffer Cache".
