Well, if you teach yourself to think like a web designer there is probably someone who has a set of menus to make it happen. Or, you could get cygwin and write short scripts to do custom processing. The SEC is working on an API now. Check out
the ncbi system that I try to sell to all gov agencies and other entities who may have useful into :

http://eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query/static/eutils_help.html

I use this for testing data mining and document analysis because it is well supported and contains the information I normally care most about. The SEC is hopefully going to implement something similar. The reason I am here is that yahoo trashed one of its best features- the ability to programmatically create URL's to access message boards.
I had written scripts that catagorized authors by the domains in the links they cite- people who regularly pointed to scientific documents became easy to separate from the political posters.
