I don't do any amazon affiliate type stuff as the money isn't great so I can't really help you there. There are things out there that can pull a feed from amazon and display the stuff on your site.

I have done that type of validation before. Often I'll do that if I am testing between multiple offers to see which works best. But usually with affiliate marketing you don't need to do that since they aren't purchasing anything from you, it just redirects to the advertisers site.
