I generally perform a mass whois search with a bunch of keyword combinations and add some prefixes and suffixes for popular endings like LY, ER, ED, S, R, etc. I created a pretty simple PHP script for doing this which I have since made drastic improvements to, but this should get you started: http://www.jqueryin.com/2010/04/12/finding-available-domains-by-keyword-combination-in-php/ http://www.jqueryin.com/2010/04/12/finding-available-domains... The whole thing stores to a file as well as uses a couple different WHOIS servers to avoid you getting temporarily banned by randomly picking one.
