I need a data feed source

Recommended Posts

I sell sports related memorabilia. When the customer clicks and sees my product, I would like to be able to display the current stats for this athlete.

Example: A client clicks to see a diecast car by Dale Earnhardt Jr. I would like to have Dale's stats listed on the page... such as wins, loses, money earned, etc. I dont want to manually update stats each week. I figure someone, somewhere has a raw database feed that I can access and format for my site. I see a lot of RSS news feed, but this is not what I want. Any ideas?

I found a few that offered statistics when I just did a Google search for "sports stats." It looks like to access most of them, you need some sort of interaction with a form. To do so, you can either just download the pages you need, or you can use cURL & PHP to get the latest forms on the fly. The second option will be a little slower.
