Re-reading the original question, I'm thinking that maybe you need a
script of some sort, with limited privileges, to run on (or query)
multiple databases, to determine what kind they are?

If so, and Gints suggestion of querying v$version doesn't work (which
it should), I think the only other way would be to query some of the
data dictionary tables to determine the max database size (which may
not always be accurate). As I recollect, the Express version has a max
database size of 4GB, so "most" databases under 4GB would probably be
a likely candidate for the Express version, while those above 4GB
obviously wouldn't be.
