    You don't need an API. You can always scrape.

Yeah, I should say that I wrote a function to scrape user comments a while ago. Using lxml's xpath function, it's fairly easy to scrape data based on its surrounding HTML content.

If any hubski users are looking to build their own clients, this isn't a bad approach to get started. Most data is public anyways, and there's not a whole lot of complexity in terms of different data sources available.
