Is there an API for checking the security of external URLs?

I am currently developing a link directory and wondering if there is a way to check URL security (e.g. spyware / inappropriate content) in real time.

eg. the user clicks an outbound link (maybe http://website.com/urlchecker.asp?url=http://external.com/tehpornos) and returns a block or places it for deletion?

Some of me believe that Google has developed something, but I can’t remember.

You can use the Google Safe Browsing Lookup API for this. Look at here:

Another solution would be to use the WOT API:
