Couldn't this be done using something like (warning; really untested and
probably nasty-looking lisp):

(add-hook gnus-select-group-hook
  (lambda ()
    (gnus-group-add-parameter group  
       (cons 'date-last-entered (list (current-time-string))))))

Of course, actually doing something with this data is up to you.
