I built something similar awhile back with FlipTop's API back when they had a free version. It took all of 20 minutes for them to shut off API access.

If you're going to wardial for email addresses, you could also just simply try emailing all of the generated addresses.

If, like me, you have multiple permutations of your email that actually work you're going to annoy the recipient quite a bit by emailing them multiple times using that technique. If this is someone you wish to impress then I'd advise against this approach.

Do it from an email address created specifically for that purpose?
