It sounds like a laborious process. You would need more like 2000 games 
to get a meaningful result with your method.

If you want to compare the two, try this.

Open a gui and cli copy.
Set them both to use the same settings, which they should be when you 
open the program.
Make gnubg the player for all four players, at the same skill level.
Set both to use manual dice.
Enter the rolls and see what each plays.

Note the positions where the cli play is different from the gui play.

Even faster.
Let the gui play itself for a session using automatic dice.
Save the session
Open the session with the cli.
Analyse the session with the cli.
Note the positions where the cli disagrees with the gui.

You will have to check that the analysis settings are the same as the 
evaluation settings.
