UPDATE: The individual who PM'd me to do this privately was unable to do so within a week's time. I'm considering re-opening this at some point, and I will not be taking any more private requests.

Since we now know from the 1DkyBE post that the largest Bitcoin address is Silk Road's cold storage, I want to better follow and record the addresses coming out as withdrawls from the "spinoff mechanism" they are using for these processes to avoid dealing with potential criminals and drawing LEO ire. To get an idea of how they are doing this, please open a new tab with the following link:
http://blockchain.info/address/1DkyBEKt5S2GDtv7aQw6rQepAvnsRyHoYM

Click the "1491KpNqoY1vGE2Rzdd76BCsuXK7QepNGU" address.
Click the "19N2NiMWcgF62mwmAzsdgEqKrVSafdyHo8" address. This is what I call a "fragment" address.
Now, from here, start clicking the largest address (the one on the top right) from each of these transactions, in order:
14D4BuxgnB1AxPoJ25oMVQ8DC6vdq1ex7i
12iScVDd2Z5c2qo3aSHBtjFmBRcsBJXQVV
1KX8Z5mmwdDnW2H27RfJKggw61qvaEiBhz
1FYVU77n3k8ZQRtsFy8oLY2wQWbJjVv4Q2

What I need is a program that will record the value, date/time, and address of the one listed immediately below it. I want it to continue to follow the most expensive addresses till there is more than one transaction output from it, and then stop recording the listed info. In this manner, I will be recording all outgoing addresses from Silk Road as well as the date/time of the transaction and the amount transferred.

Additionally, the program must be able to work "up" the chain via an argument passed to the program. Please open the following address in a new tab:
https://blockchain.info/address/1DAkupXuuucn7vZn6kg8L2GMr5yd4EBtaY

Now, from here, start clicking the larger source address (the one on the lower left) from each of these transactions, in order:
1CHPXXXFgXGD47J8AUWydBS4uDKJWJuRwB
14QK2PyrUAPqzwJ195Bfty7WH6YRH6c9Uq
1NgfWRP6JFxR6Ba9ekKnaHF4USep4wT4RV
14oSswpT6D6Z6ZopziXkxvempei1vhVTbH

Again, the program will record the value, date/time, and address of the Bitcoin address listed immediately below the first address on the right-hand side. It will do this till it encounters a transaction where there is more than one input to the highest address.

Edits for clarification: Exported format should be CSV or Tab-Delimited TXT. Can be open sourced or not, but I will need to audit code. The bounty will remain while Bitcoin is under $15/coin.

If anyone else is interested in such a program, feel free to add to the bounty.

Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

This is just going to increase the usage of coin washing / Mixing service.

But +1 for the effort.
