The Google AdWords Keyword Tool can be used by choosing "Columns" and selecting Global Monthly Searches and Estimated Ave. CPC. This gives you at-a-glance information.

More effective still is to select "Sorted by Relevance." If you select Estimated Ave. CPC this gives you an idea of the highest CPC per keyword, with the highest showing conveniently at the top.
