What are you envisioning? It would seem that drawing digits is fairly easy for bots.



One way would be to crack captchas, eg make a Chrome extension that automatically fills them up. I remember someone implemented that at some point for MegaUpload.

Another way is to gather a data set of people writing digits with their mouse, and make a classifier that tells you if an input is realistic or not. Of course you'd need to store previous user inputs to make sure someone is not just reusing the same digit over and over again.
