It's trivial to write a script to autopost for you. Assuming there are no safeguards or posting thresholds in place, you should be able to throttle up to 10k posts in no time.
But hey, why kill the web and sql servers? It's just vanity after all. :)
Oh, and BTW the number of posts is just a variable stored in a sql table. It can easily be changed by the server's admin.

Does the fact that it's a smallint mean that it'll reset after 32767 posts? |
