Here, try this, its the code I use on my site. This will display the most recent 15 threads.

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.YOURSITENAME.com/forum/external.php?&type=js"></script>
<script language="" type="text/javascript">
<!--
for (x = 0; x < 15; x++)
{
document.writeln("*<a href=http://www.YOURSITENAME.com/forum/showthread.php?t="+threads[x].threadid+">"+threads[x].title+"</a><br />");
}
//-->
</script>

That came straight off the sidebar of my wordpress blog, so it should work.
