CID Superfecta - AnyWho data source bug and fix

[randomng]

The Any Who data source script currently on http://projects.colsolgrp.net/projects/superfecta/files no longer works. I've never used it before, but found it to be accurate recently. It looks like since the script was last updated, Any Who has changed to pass the number over to yellowpages.com Find a Person. This redirect and subsequent page isn't handled in the script. Attached is a script based on the Any Who script that goes directly against yellowpages.com. I QA'd it for my own purposed and figured I'd share, but I'm too lazy to register and figure out the repository at the official site, so I'm just uploading it here (change extension to php for it to work). I hope it's at least a helpful start for someone who might already work on that project.

Many thanks for the feedback and contribution.

The admin at that site is not responding to requests at present, so there is a new fork to carry on the momentum.

We would welcome the extra help if you wanted to get involved.

I think that this would be a useful extension to the existing yellowpages lookup.
We could add an option to lookup personal numbers as well as the existing business numbers.

Issue #54 raised on the dev site.
