Its simple all you need is a couple of cheap bathroom light fixtures and some y adapters, your bulbs, and a couple power cords.. The wireing is simple and the fixtures come with the wire nuts and instructions.. I got my fixture at wallyword for $6.
Its very cheap and easy to do...If you have any more questions bout the wiring i can walk tou thru it step by step with pics, but once you get a fixture like that you will see how simple it is...

You can get the light scockets and you can wire them all in line, as you described above, but if you can find a fixture simmilar to the kind i have, i think it would be cheaper and easyer as well...

You have the wiring down...Im not sure on the limit becused it all depends on what your breakers will handle, but i would not go over 4 scokets with y adapters (so eight bulbs) per outlet.
But like i said im not sure of what kind of power you house breakers are rated for.
