Link: http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/setup_module.html
man ansible: http://lightnetics.nodebb.com/post/884

The command below gets a ton of facts.

$ ansible perth -m setup

If you want just the type of OS across many hosts do this.

$ ansible perth -m setup -a 'filter=ansible_distribution_version'
bigansible | SUCCESS => {
    "ansible_facts": {
        "ansible_distribution_version": "7.2"
    }, 
    "changed": false
}

The filter can be anything listed in the command $ ansible perth -m setup
