Currently, there doesn’t seem to be such a web site, although there are quite a few that have seat width, pitch, recline, width, leg room, and traveller reviews. With the exception of first and business-class seating, very few have information on features such as lumbar support. For economy class seating, what is available tends to be anecdotal, via customer reviews.
Seat Guru: airlines, aircraft, seat width/pitch, comparison charts, reviews.
Seat Maestro: search by airline, and craft, along with traveler reviews.
Seat Expert: seating plans, by carrier and specific aircraft, and with reviews but only when one has been submitted.
Airline Quality: Customer reviews for seat legroom, recline and seat width, comfort, in-seat power.. and more.
Expert Flyer: airline seat maps and real-time airline seating charts that show available and occupied seats for a particular flight on a particular date. Combines seat availability with SeatGuru® ratings and reviews.
Seat Plans: plans for over 150 carriers, limited seat reviews.
Net Flights, legroom chart and seat pitches by airline and aircraft, seat details including pitches for each seating class.
And, until it’s standard, some opt to carry along a lumbar support cushion, such as this inflatable version marketed to pilots. Travel shops carry it, as do online merchants like Amazon.
