Simple algorithm:
Use a loop through every day between the two given dates. If it's a business day, increase the business day counter. If it's not, move to the next day.
You'll need a way to determine if a day is a business day or not. Keep track of holidays in a collection (a hash would lend itself quite well for this). A good "day of the week" algorithm would make determining if it's a weekend or not very easy. There are plenty of these online (search google).

Last year I played around with the Doomsday Rule . I managed to make a program using the steps described. I was surpised it actually worked. Pretty awesome for such a simple set of steps.
