I use Akismet through WordPress (what I use for my blog), and it's awesome. I've yet to see a legit comment marked as spam, and it misses probably 5 in 1000 spams. Since it's a hosted service, I'd wager that the interface (CF vs PHP vs Java, etc) wouldn't have any effect on performance. Not to mention the fact that you get the benefit of having everyone helping to train the detection engine, rather than just you.
