The current state of technology for automated grammar checking is
still not very good.  See these links, for example:

  http://faculty.washington.edu/sandeep/check/
  http://papyr.com/hypertextbooks/grammar/gramchek.htm

AFAIK, the only useful flavor of grammar checking that is available at
this time is based on data bases of bad or questionable phrases
expressed as regexps.  These are, in effect, style checkers.  See

  http://www.cs.umd.edu/~nspring/software/style-check-readme.html

Perhaps someone could implement something similar in Emacs Lisp?
