What is causing thumping sound which increases in frequency with acceleration in rear wheel of Ford Taurus?

The first thing I would check is for a bad tire. The steel belts in the tire can separate and cause it to not run 'true'. A bad tire also may not show a visible symptom - having the tire balanced is one way to identify a problem. Another, no-cost diagnostic check would be to rotate the tires to the front and see if the sound / problem moves too.
