Previously I wrote about the http://aimfight.com/getFight.php URL for getting AIM Fight data programatically. However, this is not the official interface for getting this data.
http://big.oscar.aol.com/PopularQuery?screenname=<screenname> will return more detailed AIM Fight information, in XML format. A query for "juberti" returns the following XML blob:
<BuddyInfo>
<CurrentBuddyScore3>431306</CurrentBuddyScore3>
<MaxBuddyScore3>552127</MaxBuddyScore3>
<OverallRankScore3>9429</OverallRankScore3>
</BuddyInfo>
Here, "CurrentBuddyScore3" is your current AIM Fight score, "MaxBuddyScore3" is the highest score you have had recently, and "OverallRankScore3", if nonzero, is your ranking in the list of top AIM Fight scores.
Web services like this are an important part of our AIM roadmap. Look for more stuff like this in the near future...
