Suppose one was given a sequence and $a_{0}, a_{1}, a_{2}, \ldots$. Is there a searchable database somewhere to see if $a_{0} + a_{1}q + a_{2}q^{2} + \cdots$ is expressible as modular form (or some product of modular forms, etc.)?

    I asked this once. I don't remember exactly how I phrased it, so this answer might not be true. I was told that unless I really had infinitely many coefficients I couldn't tell. If you can pin down a weight and level (maybe only one of those is needed), this is what allows you to only have to check a finite number of coefficients.2012-06-17

There are two databases that contain some known modular forms. One is Stein's and this is the other.
