I need to programmatically generate a bunch of bitcoin addresses and the private keys to them. Later on I am going to fund them with bitcoin.

What are some APIs or libraries I can use to perform this task? I've looked on google but I can't seem to find something that can do this cleanly/easily.

Have you read about HD keys?

Use Bitaddress.org offline.

You can generate randomness with your mouse, and turn off your internet before going to the site so no one can steal your keys.

You can make tons of addresses very fast that way.

You can use NBitcoin if you want to do it with C#.

Learn to use crypto libraries and follow the standard procedure, it's not rocket science but there are multiple steps to doing this.

Well, in Clojure the best library is bitcljoin: https://github.com/pelle/bitcljoin

It retrieves balances, sends transactions and etc. Just my 0.02$
