A comment to my own question: I should have formulated it better, of course all MC programs are useful in some sense. The specifics of the request is that the player is not avalable to play live against a normal program and to learn from interactive play. Also, for the analysis to be more accurate and/or to investigate positions that are earlier in the game the computing times may be too long for interactive sessions. Ideal would be a program submitted in batch-mode which is given an sgf file from a game and the program would analyse all positions starting with the last move going backwards and making comments into a file.
I realize that MC programs are stronger in close games, so for each analysis the number of prisoners might be adapted to get the best out of MC so that from the analysis one can see where the player lost one or two points.
