Google search result count for 10000 terms

I have a list of about 10000 names, and I want to determine in an automatic way their "importance". A sufficient metric for me would be the number of results of each name in Google.

Is there an easy way to get that number? I can see that by subscribing to the Custom Search API I only have a free quota of 100 searches per day. It will take me 100 days to get my results!

Is there some easy way to do this?

Thanks!

Note: My language of preference is Java.

It looks like the Bing API will let you do 7 queries/sec, so just half an hour. bing.com/toolbox/bingdeveloper – clstrfsck
Thanks, I will try it out. Write it as an answer so that if it works for me I can check it. – Markos Fragkakis
