The SWX Wordpress API by Benjamin Wiederkehr opens up Wordpress to Flash developers. You can get all posts or search for posts by author, category, id, date, or tag. You can also play with comments, authors, categories, tags, images, and options.
Here's what Benjamin says about it:
The idea of creating SWX-Wordpress came when i was strugling with a project at university. We had to create a prototype of some databased driven application . . . I was using a handwritten script to connect to the database and it was such a hassle to get the data that i spend more time on that than on actual designing the visualization.
During summer I experimented a little with SWX and decided to rewrite the above mentioned visualization with the use of SWX. What I need first is a solid library of functions to get the needed data. I took the Wordpress Template Tags as my archetype and thought out a basic set of functions with the data and datastructure they should provide. The result is the actual function catalog.
From here on it was just a matter of programming skills (I had to learn), good coffee and some nightshifts in front of Textmate.

SWX Kuler API by Florian Plag parses a kuler rss feed (e.g. most popular, highest rated, ...) and returns an array with the color themes.
It's also possible to search for specific themes. The filters use the Kuler search feed. So you can look for title, hex values, etc.
The SWX Kuler API works with both PHP 4 and 5.
Here's what Florian says about it:
I also had some fun with "kulering" the swx logo
The Service Explorer and the Data Analyzer are really nice tools. It's really easy to work with SWX!
SWXml by Florian Palg is a generic XML parser for SWX.
SWXml provides flash developers with a very easy way to create applications using the popular XML format (e.g. RSS Feeds, Atom, Media RSS, etc.).
SWXml parses an XML file and returns an array containing all the information. So you don’t need to write ActionScript Code for parsing, you can just use the data of the XML file in a native way.
