For those of you who want services, I went and hacked this together in 5 minutes:

You can drop the Python script into Automator and use that to publish a Service without tweaking anything else (but of course a proper solution would do some sort of API key management, maybe use the keychain module to retrieve that, etc.)

Still, it was a fun quick hack. Thanks rexec for the inspiration, I'm now looking into doing the same with a simple Lua/Obj-C app to publish the services directly.
