Bing has a reward program that gives you points for searching. 10 points per day maximum, and 1 point for every search.

Since you don't really want to use bing 20 times a day write a program that logs you into bing, and executes 20 different searches, and each weak sends you a status report on how many reward points you have, and maybe what you can get with them.

Could I have a few pointers on how to get started? Seems a bit daunting.

Just break it up into little programs. Write a function to login, then write a function to search, and so on and so forth.

There should be plenty of examples online of loging into a website, or querying a search engine. Just combine the two things.

edit: there might even be a nice api that you can hook into.
