You can extend the functionality of Jquery and add your own 'attrs' implementation.

Add the following lines of code to your JavaScript file:

jQuery.fn.extend({
    attrs: function (attributeName) {
        var results = [];
        $.each(this, function (i, item) {
            results.push(item.getAttribute(attributeName));
        });
        return results;
    }
});

Now you can get the list of level values by calling:

$(".object").attrs("level")
