Well, like you'd said: this largley depends on there being an API for hubski. Reddit has an awesome API that's simple to jump right into (it uses JSON, a pretty intuitive way of storing data, as well as a drop dead simple way of accessing it).

Without it, I'd pretty much be forced to do page scraping, and that's just not a lot of fun (and it's made a bit tougher because most user data is actually retrieved via javascript in the page and is dynamic, not stored on a static page).

I can't wait for the Hubski API to come out!
