The Mac OS X color picker is extensible.
Use Hex Color Picker to add a tab that provides you the configured color in hexadecimal RGB.
Just run e.g. TextEdit and press Cmd-Shift-C to open the color picker, or run your standalone program.
An even more versatile color picker is Developer Color Picker with many different output formats, one of which is hexadecimal.

I know this is a super old post, but just thought I'd throw this one out there that I've been using for awhile: Sip. Works pretty sweet, and you can get a ton of different color options.
I have no affiliation with the developer, just think it's a cool little app. And it's Free! :-) Enjoy
