This looks close. I wonder how good it really is functioning though. I'll take a look, but it is a great idea.

edit: Ok, I dunno how well this really works, but it sounds/looks rather brokenish. Actually, I think this could have been easily made not nearly so pricey though. An API is expensive for this task, it's such a general task it should be a 1 time fee.

edit2: Actually this is pretty neat, but dang that price is annoying. I think anyone re-coding this idea as a plugin without a API cost and instead with a single cost but outputted the code would literally make 3x the amount of money.

edit3: Kimono is broken. Just did some tests on random blogs. It is not exactly as good as it suggests. It just chose a few sites that are easy to scrape from for it's display.
