While I agree that it would be great to have such service it's just technically impossible. Google is very cautious to protect their service from automated requests (on behalf of humans or in batch or in any other form), and you will need quite some resources (a.k.a $$$) to scale at Google scale if your service would ever become popular.

Except if you run it locally (on the user's computer).
