Transfer WordPress post to RoR site: is the REST Api the only and/or best solution?

Use the file that wordpress generate at “export”. It should contain the basic info you are talking about (although not the user’s passwords if you are expecting to get it as well). It is just an xml file which you can parse, you can even look at the code of the wordpress importer for guidance.
