If you make something awesome people will buzz about it and the news will naturally spread to news sites like Digg. I wouldn't qualify your site as "awesome" just yet.
You should get on the front page of Digg by doing something noteworthy, not try to make your thing noteworthy by getting on the front page of Digg. That's backwards.
edit: If there was a trivial way to get on the front page of Digg then anyone would do it and said site would become worthless. In fact it's a bit like your site, the barrier to entry is so insanely low any spammer can and does take advantage of it so why bother with it? The spam problem should be one of your top priorities right now.

>>> import mechanizeFirst, get your site up and running. Then, make it compelling enough that people want to use it. Then, and only then, worry about getting publicity for it.
you really need to work on your site. What is it for, why is there no info about the purpose of the site, where is your design? Why should I as a user find any value in your service? What is your service anyway?
Traffic from digg is inherently ephemeral. No stickiness. A few years ago digg traffic was a useful way to launch a site or product. My old firefox extension Cacheout! made the front page and I eventually had 10000 regular users. Nowadays the alpha adopters no longer pay attention to digg as a first mover news source. Digg is increasingly irrelevant. Too much noise, no signal.

Your question, "How do you get on Digg's fron page?" reminds of the question, "How do you get to Carnegie Hall?"
I'll quote the first paragraph of the referenced article (and is actually a good read):
"There's a story, perhaps apocryphal, about legendary pianist Arthur Rubinstein who was approached in the street near New York's world-famous Carnegie Hall by someone who asked, "Pardon me sir, how do I get to Carnegie Hall?" To which Rubinstein replied, "Practice, practice, practice!""

I always wanted to live right down the road from Carnegie Hall. That way when people asked how to get to my house, I could say "Practice, practice, practice. Then make a left."

The simple answer: Get enough diggs from a wide range of users in a short space of time.
The problem is, to get those diggs your site or page needs to be something digg worthy. Unfortunately, your site (IMO) isn't digg worthy.
