You can get my USHCN C++ code (which shows the amount of fake data) here. It is simple enough to figure out and similar to the GHCN code. This downloads and runs much faster than the GHCN daily code. You can do the whole thing in a few minutes.
./get
cd into the newly created ushcn directory
ln -s ../ushcn.exe
ln-s ../ushcn-stations.txt
ln -s ../configure
./configure
./ushcn.exe US_final.tavg > US_final.csv
./ushcn.exe US_tob.tavg > US_tob.csv
./ushcn.exe US_raw.tavg > US_raw.csv
