Wheel Axle Thread Count and Diameters...
Is there a difference between Italian, French, and English wheel axle sizes? Information pertaining to diameter and threads per inch would certainly be a big help.

There's alot of odd threading out there.
Aside from Sutherlands you could always copy/paste the info from Sheldon Brown into your site.
