You could take a screenshot & sample from there... Or try this free one http://www.iconico.com/colorpic/

There are quit a few freebie colour pickers out there if you do a web search :)

Speaking of screenshot tools, if you're on Ubuntu, try Shutter http://shutter-project.org/ and if you're on Windows try ZScreen http://brandonz.net/projects/zscreen/index.html . You can then take the resultant image file into Inkscape and use the eyedropper tool

On either operating system if you use Firefox you can use the colorzilla extension http://www.colorzilla.com/firefox/ to take a colour value from any web page.
