This mod watches all your chat channels and tracks stupid things people say. You can shift click the name to see a percentage that will tell how much of a noob they are. The word list is a work in prorgess and the formula could use some work but it is tracking and reporting noobness.
Install this mod and it will track in the background. Let it gather some data and later shift click the names in chat. It watches key words, use of caps, and repeating the same thing over and over. I spent some time in the barrens while testing it and picked up a lot of key phrases to use. And yes, I do know that it will report more then 100% noob. Watch out for those guys.
Here is a direct link to download my initial release: KevTool NoobDetector
This mod was inspired by this post over at the Greedy Goblin and is a shameless attempt to drive trafic to my site. It has nothing to do with working the auction house or making gold. But have fun with it. Once I get a good set of sample data (more than today) I will see if I can make it more accurate.
My logic could be flawed, but here is how I calculate the noob percent. I take all messages and subtract all CAPSLOCK and repeating messages to get my valid messages count. I then divide my noob count by the valid messages and that’s the result. If the valid messages are 0 I do something different. So people that spam noob in CAPSLOCK over and over will greatly inflate the noob score.
I know the word list needs work. I have not had time to revisit it. But it should be easy for customize it for your self if you know any lua.

Is it possible to color the names in chat according to how noob they are?
grey – 100%+
white – 50%+
green – 25%+
blue – 15%+
purple – 5%+
orange – 1%+
red – 0%
numbers off the top of my head.
i havent yet looked at your addon(i came to look at KTQ) so you might have something similar already in place.
