A Free or Paid Screener Service that Searches Decline or Increase Percentage Over a Certain Time?

Say, for example, I want to find all stocks that fell (or increased) by 600% or more in 2008 (or better yet, over 2008 through 2009). How do I do so? Does it have to be done manually?
 
This is a trivial to program, if you have the (accurate) data. If your programming skills are poor, time to start learning. Your competition already has done so.

Also, stocks can't fall by more than 100%. I think you need to rethink your question.

LOL. Are you 100% on that last part? :)

Yep - we are talking about stocks here, not other instruments that have other obligations. I don't know which planet you trade on, but stocks can't fall further than zero.

Of course your account balance can go negative if you trade on margin, but we're talking about a _stock_ falling more than 100%.
