It is a *trivial* perl script with "random part" based mostly on results
generated by message-unique-id. Anyway it uses (public) data sources and
(simple) techniques  I would prefer not to "advertise" publicly because
they may be *easily* abused by spammers.
For me only Lisp integration was challenging.

P.S.
Take a look at message-id-s of my posts to get an idea what it does :-)
