Web scraping library
Here's a slightly different solution which could work: this Haskell library for Selenium works fine - I've used it. You could navigate to the page using Selenium and whatever supported browser you like (Chrome, Firefox, Edge etc.) and then evaluate a Javascript snippet on the page, via the Selenium API, to retrieve the value you want. One potential advantage of this is it'll work on highly Javascript-dependent pages.

Does the Haskell client for Selenium still work?
Also, we tried to update the webdriver 4 years ago and were not met with much enthusiasm: https://github.com/kallisti-dev/hs-webdriver/pull/144

There is an attempt to get it updated, but I don't know how usable it is.
