The only way would be to manually go through the PNR for EACH indiviual on the waitlist to make note of status and booking code, then compile it in order by hand. Plus throw in the problem of figuring out who tops who if status and booking code is the same. And then of course that list can and almost always does change as new people are added.
I believe that is what mahasamatman was referring to.
