For a read only API the Yahoo! Answers API

probably is a good start:

• questionSearch
• getByCategory (getByTag in askbot)
• getQuestion
• getByUser

A read/write API could encourage a android or iPhone app developer to write a mobile client on top of that. Sth. like

1. questionSearch (to check if it was already asked),
2. authenticate,
3. postQuestion,
4. getQuestion (for the answers) and
5. vote/rate/choose best answer
