I don't know about auto-close, but I would love to have a quick way to "blacklist" websites such that whenever I saw a link to these sites it was marked and I don't even bother clicking.

if Google made that kind of information (number of times a site was blacklisted) were be available, would sites be incentivized to clean up their act a little?

I doubt it. Big media sites would be blacklisted by many for being "too liberal".

I think there is a similar extension called web of trust.

you can count on some start up measuring this data (from dom tree, or something) to some extend.

This can probably be implemented as an extension right now.
