I vaguely recall seeing a presentation on exactly this at an open
source con a few years back:

http://osdc2006.cgpublisher.com/proposals/73/index_html

The paper is available here:

http://maurice.vodien.com/unrefereed/OSDC06-MontyLingua.pdf

The "emotional estimation" aspect revolved mostly around Open Mind
Common Sense:

Unfortunately, there are no code samples in the presentation, but you
may be able to approach the author, Maurice Ling.

Hope this helps.
