I'm sure most readers of this list have already seen this, but just in case:

Christoph Ringlstetter, Klaus U. Schulz and Stoyan Mihov:  Orthographic 
Errors in Web Pages - Towards Cleaner Web Corpora . Computational

One useful output is a classification of websites into ones that have 
more or fewer misspellings.
