Needing some help here. I've just discovered I have some eth in an old address I created when initially playing around with eth mining late last year. I have the key file from the keystore directory (the one beginning UTC) but I can't remember all of the password - it was a six-letter word followed by four numbers. I can remember the word, but not the numbers.
So that's 9999 possibilities, which is obviously not feasible to try out by hand. Is there any tool available to automate this?

for both i could write you a bruteforce script.
But of course in that period the value of ETH has gone up from around $11 to $450. So my eth that was worth less then $250 then is now worth more than $9000
As I'm the type who always sold coins as they were mined, forgetting my password has turned out to be very, very lucrative
