If you have access to a Linux machine, type: less /usr/share/dict/words
It's a list of about 45,000 words that a program called aspell uses for spell checking. You would have to write a script to get them into a database, but it's a good list. If you don't have access to a Linux machine but would like the list, let me know and I can put it somewhere where you can download it.
