To do that you need a headless browser. In java HtmlUnit or envjs. You can use node.js based zombie.js or phamtom.js. I wrote my own that I call Kas which is as old as node.js but I have never released it. The good thing of mine is that works as a cgi javascript engine that you drop in apache or iis with webkit accesible as a browser object. The good thing also is that is not event driven so the code is easier to follow. Even has the dump function!! ;)
If you give me a couple of days I can expose a service for you. I was thinking also to upload the code to bitbucket, I have to many good projects picking dust in my drawer... from a real fast streaming server, to kas... but I never think that someone is finding them interesting and writing docs for them is also very time consuming and I have to work with others things to earn the money...
