I would prefer Vbulletin provide an API with user access controlled through the GET protocol ie. u=username&p=plaintextpassword

As for XML feed; that wouldnt work. Query Caching? Redundant. It is no more intensive than loading the page in the browser yourself except the application does it at the stream level and only parses html code.

But I may implement some API for vbulletin administrators to allow them extended functionality IE. New Reported Post.
