Help needed with a domain drop list site

I'm working on building a site that will list all of the names scheduled to be dropped each day. I was sort of building it for myself, but decided I may as well offer it up for others to use. However, I'm having a few minor problems.

First, I can't find PR effectively. It seems that the script I'm using is finding "0" PR for all of the sites. When I pull them up with the toolbar, they also come up 0. However, other sites that show names dropping soon list PR values for some domains. Do they pull old values?

Also, I'd like to include the Overture ratings, as many people like that information. I had it working (via a screen scrape), but Overture doesn't like that and soon banned my server's IP. How do other sites get that information?

The site is still very much a work in progress, but you may be able to get some value out of it (the link is in my signature). Any input would be much appreciated.

At this point I've been focusing mostly on the best ways to GET the information for the database - Google numbers, Alexa info, etc. I'll try to make it look nicer later.

Also, there is only info for the next day or so for most domains, although the server is working hard to fill in the rest of the blanks for the next five days.

Let me know what you think.
