I don't see any mention of an API in the FAQ, but I'm sure it wouldn't be very difficult to create a bot that screenshots a thread. Unfortunately I don't have the skills to do that.

hubski crashed yesterday because of the spike in new users. Putting out a functional API that can withstand automated bot calls seems...unlikely, at least for the near future.

if you read about the architecture of the site, you'd know that scaling across servers/load balancing nodes is non-trivial. And there is a huge difference between balancing API loads and regular UI loads.
