Web Word Frequency Index

I'm looking for an index of word frequency across the web.  There are
many indexes of word frequency in written and spoken English. 
However, I'm looking for one that is on the web.  For instance, the
words "home" or "email" are much more common on the web than in spoken
or written English.  A good metric would be, for instance, how many
pages in Google's database have that word.  While I can do a search on
Google to find this, I'm looking for an index that won't require
manual searching each time.

There is no answer at this time.
