I am not familiar with Yodlee, but I recently discovered that many banks support OFX [1], which is a format for exchanging financial information.

GnuCash has a list of OFX credentials for major banks. [2] In fact, there are tons of OFX open source libraries out there - I had luck with this one recently in Python. [3]
