I actually did a google search for an API for any of the number of websites that contain futures quotes - no luck.

As for researching INO.com's screen-scraping usage - well, thanks for the suggestion. After 10 minutes of browsing the site for policy related entries, I found no entries indicating that such practices are illegal.

    Just to be on the safe side, it might be worthwhile checking the robots.txt file, to see if they decide to give you a message to stop doing it.
