To answer your question, this information is contained in a whois
lookup.

So, I suppose it would be possible to write a short script to check.
Unfortunately the return format of each TLD is different, but that can
be worked out.

Hmm.

Is there any way to tap into the registrar system so you get notified of
a new domain name when it's created?

Maybe a low-scoring (1 or 2 points) SURBL for domains that are less than
one month old? (the cutoff age may need to be tuned, of course...)
