Nice but nonsense ;)  The browser has to do this on its own.  lynx has
an option to number links one by one:

ke@tux:~/Projects> lynx -dump -number_links http://www.nwalsh.com | head -15

   nwalsh.com
         [1]DocBook
         [2]XML
         [3]Documents
         [4]Perl
         [5]Palm Pilot
         [6]Emacs
         [7]Fonts
         [8]TeX
         [9]Travel Journal
         [10]Who We Are
         [11]Genealogy
     [12]Text
   Only

And to select one of these links just enter the numbers.
