Traumwind - Yes, Google rocks! Google Web APIs

With the Google Web APIs service, software developers can query more than 2 billion web documents directly from their own computer programs. Google uses the SOAP and WSDL standards so a developer can program in his or her favorite environment - such as Java, Perl, or Visual Studio .NET.

I see only one problem with this. Given their Terms of Service there is only so much you can do with it... Same goes for simply scaping the HTML, the Term also apply there

Time for some SOAP research:

Of courde the Google Weblog has quality pointers!

Just one of the many PHP implementation for SOAP: Dietrich Ayala | PHP + XML LGPL

Simon Fell: PocketSOAP is a SOAP client COM component for the Windows family, originally targeted at PocketPC (hence the name), there is also a Win32 version that works on Windows 95/98/Me/NT4/2000/XP. The package includes a HTTP transport for making HTTP based SOAP requests, however the transport is separate from the main SOAP core, so any other transports can be easily added. (experimental SOAP over Jabber via pocketSOAP TransportPak Beta)
