I'm not going to try this, but I figure it would work. There's that script out there where you can position a hidden iframe under the mouse at all times. Host a digg or reddit button in that iframe and have it always positioned over the up button. You'd probably hit #1 pretty quick, but people would raise hell.
 
what for risk it and waste time doing this shit ?? go do other things..
 
I started off in this business because I was a hacker 10 years ago. I can't let this stuff go by without at least figuring out the feasability. This was just for fun.

Think what you will, but this is a major issue. If this trick were to catch on, it would cripple the sites. In fact, if someone wanted to use this purely maliciously, they could generate accounts and sites easily to make it so the users couldn't block the spam fast enough. It's a pretty big deal.

About a year ago I found an XSS hole in craigslist. It's no business model, but if I wanted to, I could have raised hell with it. Can you imagine? Posting javascript across all the craigslist categories in every city? Drive by installing a bot to auto post? CL would be completely unusable within a few hours.

It's somewhere in the Harro clickjacking thread, but I'm going to put together an actual proof of concept for Reddit tonight.
