Hrm.  On a mac, I use iStumbler- which is free/open and I understand  
based on NetStumbler.  Not sure about FreeBSD options.

I found this in the ports collection searching for 'stumbler',
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/ports.cgi? 
query=stumbler&stype=all&release=5-STABLE%2Fi386

Also, there's ap-utils, bsd-airtools, KisMet- perhaps other folks here  
have experience with these tools...
