Using wildcards to search for an acrostic in Hebrew

I was recently asked about the appearance of acrostics spelling out the divine name in Esther. In light of the abundance of bible code garbage out there, I am naturally skeptical, especially with the abundance of words which begin with yod, vav, and he; however, there is no reason to think that an acrostic could not be an intentional literary technique. I was wondering if it would be possible to do a Bible search using wildcards to find if this is actually a very common occurrence in the Hebrew text. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated,
