You can request the Zone File from Verisign: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.verisign.com&#x2F;en_US&#x2F;channel-resources&#x2F;domain-registry-products&#x2F;zone-file&#x2F;index.xhtml" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.verisign.com&#x2F;en_US&#x2F;channel-resources&#x2F;domain-regi...</a><p>I&#x27;m currently doing some research on unicode domains for my project <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;i️.ws" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;xn--i-i89h.ws</a> and the information has been pretty interesting....

Make a &lt;insert your favorite language&gt; script that loads an English word dictionary, add .com at the end of each word and curl each concatenated string for a 200 response. This will get you starting. Then you can try with numbers, towns, countries etc. After n days and n GB of bandwidth you&#x27;ll have your own verified list of domains. I think you&#x27;ll have difficulties finding such an up-to-date list. Good luck with your search engine(assuming you want to build such one).
