different solutions

  • use the rss or atom-feed (each is xml) and parse it; has always fast and sure the post and data inside; easy to use with different langugage, all frameworks has implement for parse xml.

  • use the xmlrpc interface; but is optional in WP and you must read the documentation for the API

  • scan the wesite, parse the html; but not sure, different errors and more.

  • you can also include the wp-load.php from the install and use all wp-solutions in php, query and so on; but i think it is in problem to get th rights form the users of your App.
