Writing the scripts would be a simple enough task.  Would just need to 
interface with the CLI scripts.

Chris Pelling is right, BTW, with the domain registrar "gimmicks".   We 
are fortunate to work with a registrar that gives a very good rate right 
out of the box, and an even better rate if you prepay.   Which is what 
we do, 100 at a time.   But obviously not every operator has the kind of 
cash flow to throw at a situation like that.  Especially the "little 
guys" for whom it would provide the most value!
