Nice tool, although the results seem to be a bit incorrect in some situations. I've searched for "hotel" and got a nice list of "available" domains, but some of them were already registered (eg. hotelbit.com, hotelartist.com, buzzhotel.com)

Good thing is I also got some very interesting domain names which were indeed available, so kudos for the nice work.
