RE: Translation question

Not to put a damper on this very interesting idea, but if I were to create a
site like almisbar I would probably have something set up so it wouldn't
allow too many requests from the same source...

would it be worth taking an english dictionary and throwing 
it up against almisbar and parsing the data from that?  ie using a robot to
collect that dictionary as quickly as possible?  someone would have to read
over it later, but I was looking at it yesterday and I think PHP could go to
the 
URL, submit a word from a US dictionary, or vice versa, and 
then get the response to store in mysql.
