Dear madcoweater-ga;

Thank you for allowing me an opportunity to answer your interesting
question.

While unofficial, this site, which appears to be the only independent
source available at the moment that updates daily, claims to glean its
information from notable news sources and that it confirms its count
by comparing the data against multiple reports.

IRAQ BODY COUNT DATABASE
http://www.iraqbodycount.net/
http://www.iraqbodycount.net/bodycount.htm

“Casualty figures are derived solely from a comprehensive survey of
online media reports. Where these sources report differing figures,
the range (a minimum and a maximum) is given. All results are
independently reviewed and error-checked by at least three members of
the Iraq Body Count project team before publication.”

I hope you find that that my research exceeds your expectations. If
you have any questions about my research please post a clarification
request prior to rating the answer. I welcome your rating and your
final comments and I look forward to working with you again in the
near future. Thank you for bringing your question to us.

Best regards;
Tutuzdad-ga

Hello madcoweater,

I think the only way you can do this is to search "Google News"
For example today (Thursday 17th April)

"Iraq says at least 600 civilians have been killed and more than 4,000
wounded since the war began on March 20"
http://english.peopledaily.com.cn/200304/17/eng20030417_115327.shtml

The kind of search you should use is:
"civilians have been killed" iraq 
http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&scoring=d&as_qdr=all&q=%22civilians+have+been+killed%22+iraq+

Does this help?

Best regards
