The API is REST-inspired, allowing the submission and retrieval of test cases and statistics.
The current API version is 1.2. All API function URLs are prefixed with
/1.2.

Most API endpoints are authenticated by a set of username and secret
credentials. The credentials can be used as a username and password in
Basic authentication, or they can be used to create a signature which is
passed as a query string parameter or post variable.
Each API endpoint lists the fields that it requires in the signature. The
values are concatenated using a : character, and a SHA512 HMAC is made
using the secret value.
GET /1.2/status/url?url=http%3a%2f%2fwww.example.com&date=2010-10-27+11
The status/url endpoint requires the URL and date fields to be signed, so the signature is generated using:
hex_hmac_sha512("http://www.example.com:2010-10-27 11:00:00", "my_api-secret");
This is appended to the GET request to give:
GET /1.2/status/url?url=http%3a%2f%2fwww.example.com&date=2010-10-27+11
