I've tested Bing translate and found that some of its results were better than Google translate.
Here is the API description page:

    Need to check license first

    Microsoft have indeed changed their process for authentication data. I should still be possible to create a plugin and it would be a good feature as MS have a train-your-own service with tmx input that is free for 2 million characters and a good underlying MT system. However, it is more work to implement that I would have expected (not least because of the redirect URI they ask for which,if I understand it correctly, would require a server running all the time) so I am going to put work on it on hold.

    Implemented in 2.6.1 update 2.

    - Microsoft Translator added. Requires -Dmicrosoft.api.client_id=xxxxxx and
    -Dmicrosoft.api.client_secret=xxxx to be set. Identifiers can be obtained from
    the Windows Azure Marketplace.
