Check out http://usfirst.firstsn.org/xml/qa.php
You can use the following queries in your url to access different info.
The queries are:
section=[Section]
date=[Date]
mmddyyyy=[(MM/DD/YYYY)]
search=[Search]
status=[Status]
skip=[offset] **NOTE: MAX 25 DISPLAY**
An example url would be:
http://usfirst.firstsn.org/xml/qa.ph...tatus=answered
Take a look at the actual Q & A page to see what are the possible values you can enter for each of the fields.
Also, just to let anyone know, this script parses the FIRST site directly on every call so you'll be guarenteed fresh data.
If anyone has any questions's or actually finds a good way to use this let me know.

What I really want to know is if it's possible to sort by newest posts... I find it rather annoying that the Q&A system only sorts by section and there's no option to sort by date - makes it very hard to look for new questions. FIRST - if you're out there, add an option to order the Q&A system by date... everything's from a database, so it's just a matter of adding a few lines of code.
