Has any one wrote a bas script to find google wacks?

Question

im just watching dave gormans googlewach adventure and i was thinking that this would be perfect for a bash script. has any one tried doing this ?
wordlist=/path/to/word/list
word1=head -n $random $worklist tail -n 1
word2=head -n $random $worklist tail -n 1
curl http://www.google.co.uk/search?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=&=&q=$word1+$word2 > google.cach
if grep "Results 1 - 1" google.cache
then goto 1
else
echo google wach found $word1 $word2
fi
so far all i have is this not proper syntax, just mental planing

Planning to do a million google searches? I don't think they will like that.
Anyway, you can get a random item with word1=$(sort -R "$wordlist" | head -n 1)
And you can look at a rendered google page like this:
curl -s -A 'Mozilla/4.0' 'http://www.google.co.uk/search?source=i … &rlz=&=&q='"$word1+$word2" | html2text -ascii -nobs -style compact -width 80
You have to grep that for "1 out of 1 result", but I don't know what the string is, try this with an actual googlewhack:
curl -s -A 'Mozilla/4.0' 'http://www.google.co.uk/search?source=i … ooglewhack' | html2text -ascii -nobs -style compact -width 80 | grep Results
After you get the grep, you can use grep -q and then if .......... | grep -q ........; then echo got a result for $word1 $word2; fi
EDIT:
And you might as well exchange the html2text command with just: tr '=' '\n'
EDIT2:
If you're going to make a new post, make a new post...
#!/bin/bash
wordlist=/home/mark/wordlist.txt
word1=$(sort -R "$wordlist" | head -n 1)
word2=$(sort -R "$wordlist" | head -n 1)
curl -s -A 'Mozilla/4.0' 'http://www.google.co.uk/search?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=&=&q=$word1+$word2' | html2text -ascii -nobs -style compact -width 80 > google.cache
if grep -qw "Results 1 - 1" google.cache; then
echo google wack found
echo $word1
echo $word2
else
echo $word1
echo $word2
echo is not a google wack
grep Results google.cache
echo waiting 30 seconds and trying again
sleep 30; /home/mark/google.wack
fi
so far all that happens with this is that curl searches google for $word1 and $word2 how can i get curl to use the exports?
