It might be better to point to some best practices. Just because a site 
is or is not accessible won't give much of a hint as to why. Here is one 
list I use:
http://dev.aol.com/accessibility/requirements/

a more official list is here:

http://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG20/quickref/#guidelines

I also like running my pages through Worldspace which has a free scanner 
here:

it catches a lot of the basic problems.
