You’re probably going to have to do a bit of checking for the individual browsers as they store the history data in different ways, and even in terms of the same browser there is going to be platform dependent code.
Firefox (perhaps the easiest browser to accomplish this task for) for instance stores the history in a sqlite3 file called places.sqlite, so by using the JDBC Sqlite driver you should be able to access it. (The format is fairly well documented and Sqlite on Java is as well).
For the others it is a matter of researching where and what format they store the history in and writing code to access it.
You’re then going to have to build a table of all accesses in the last hour, because it is going to be impossible to know without probing what browser the user uses.
