[scikit-learn] Elbow method function for K-means procedure

[Andreas Mueller]

Hey.

This is a method that's relatively easy to implement if someone wants to 
use it
(as witnessed by the shortness of your notebook). It's hard to make it 
work robustly,
though, and we have several cluster evaluation measures in sklearn already.
I would be more interested in see some stability based evaluation.

Cheers,
