    Well, I think your best bet is browsing that backup from outside Mac OS X. Or I am totally wrong.
    My basic idea is: if you can figure out how Apple name those backups and how to store them on your backup disk, you will be able to view them using finder and probably fetch any file in any version from there.

    If they provide free trial, go ahead and try it out.
    If not, find another alternative.

    Go to the TM drive, and search for the file, you'll get every version available.
