I'd like to get the lat/lon coordinates of points along a road, say every 100 meters or so. I could go to Google Maps and manually click on points, but I'd like to do this automatically.

I think the easiest way to do this is to create a KML file with all your lat/long coordinates and open them using Google Earth or Google Maps (http://maps.google.com/maps?q= "YOUR KML FILE URL HERE")
Some info on creating a valid KML file: http://code.google.com/apis/kml/faq.html#howtocreate
and here you can find an Excel to KML converter:

You can once again get the latitude/longitude for any arbitrary point on the map by right-clicking (or Ctrl+click) and choosing "What's here?"

It's not possible to do this (from Google maps, at least).
