Have you tried to use the new ServerManager object (available for IIS 7.0 and up, through Microsoft.Web.Administration)?

Please try using the following snippet:

using (ServerManager serverManager = new ServerManager()) { 

var sites = serverManager.Sites; 
foreach (Site site in sites) 
{ 
  Console.WriteLine(site.Id); 
}

To obtain the ID of one site in particular, LINQ works like a charm.
