  1. Yahoo! Pipes is your best bet for something like this. The only issue might be that it is limited in the number of results that are returned. The Google API can be used to get an XML list of _all_ search results, but I'm not an expert in that area. Your approach will be to build a pipe that retrieves the search results from Google as XML, and then spit them out as CSV. It's simple enough to do - the most difficult bit will be working out the format for the Google search URL. Check out: http://pipes.yahoo.com
  2. I know the guy who wrote a program that looks up Google results and displays metrics in relation to the search results. I don't think it'll be too hard to modify the code behind it and display results as a CSV instead. Maybe you should give them a shout?
