google will also block you as 'virus infected' or similar if you make too many automated requests. i don't recall what the actual number was, but if you try to scrape data on too many sites from 1 host, you'll be blocked for 24hrs.

Probably not worth the effort but I'm sure you could use an ActiveX control to do the scraping from a users IP and then upload it to the server.
