This topic is kinda old but I am looking for an API of Bitcointalk in order to fetch information about forum users (post counts). Has there an API been released in the meantime?

AFAIK no. You will need to create a parser to fetch details. If you need help, ask Bitcoin_BOy$. He will help you.

In new forum software(Epocktalk), API is available but don't if there is an API for fetching details.

There is no API, although such feature is planned in the new forum software. Till then, you're going to need to write a script that fetches it directly from the code of the webpage.

Well, I just stumbled upon this => http://bitcointalkapi.appspot.com

Not sure if it'll serve my purpose. Lets me look into it in detail.

Well that seems interesting. Let us know if it works for you. I'd be interested in that as well.

I'm no expert, but I don't think there's such a think released publicly.

Is there any API available for BitcoinTalk ? I mean to say, if I provide the User ID, how can I get the following info programmatically...

i. User Name

ii. Total Post

iii. Activity

iv. Signature Code

v. General Statistics data (may be in JSON format)
