Modified Google distance measure?

I know google has the ability to measure straight lines on google maps, but is it possible to have google do a circle measurement? For example, let's say I wanted to set my house as the epicenter, and have a radius of 6,969 (lol) feet where I check for any business that starts with the letter "A."

Alternatively, for the programmers out there, what would I have to know (programming-wise) in order to write a program that would create a radius of 6,969 feet from my house (or any location I arbitrarily choose), and can tell me any business that starts with the letter "A." Explain it like you're talking to someone that has no programming experience lol.
