Function that determines if letters form a word?

Question

Hi - I'm interested in your API for an iOS game I'm developing.  Essentially all I need is a function that returns a boolean indicating whether or not the letters I've passed in (in a specific order) form a valid English word.  Thanks...

Hi SeeSharper,
Could you just call the base api for a word? If it returns a 200, then it's a word, if it returns a 404, then its not a word.
