I try to retreive all the comments of a user through the following call:
http://userecho.com/api/users/[user_id]/comments.json?key=[key]
However it always returns a empty array, even for users of which I'm sure they have placed lots of comments.
Furthermore: is it possible to retreive the statistics through the API? I want to back-up the data and analyse the use of the forum.
About statistics we added experimental call that allow to get visitors and pageviews statistics.
http://userecho.com/api/stat/2011/visitors.json?key=
It will return raw google analytics data for selected year for your community.

Thank you very much, now I've got all statistics in one handy overview!
Tip1: include pagination and limit in the API discription. Tip2: special characters like ë won't pass PHP's json_decode() function (without throwing an error which was pretty frustrating), use utf8_encode() first.
Here is the code I created, maybe has some use for others.
$file = file('your_analytics_data_here.txt');
foreach($file as $line){
$datePos = strpos($lines, ';ga:date=');
//find next value enclosure
$datePosClose = strpos($line, '&', $datePos);
$dateTextPos = strpos($line, 'value=\"', $datePos+10);
//find next value enclosure
$dateTextPosClose = strpos($line, '\"', $dateTextPos+8);
$visitorsPos = strpos($line, 'value=\"', $dateTextPos+10);
//find next value enclosure
$visitorsPosClose = strpos($line, '\"', $visitorsPos+8);
$pageviewsPos = strpos($line, 'value=\"', $visitorsPos+10);
//find next value enclosure
$pageviewsPosClose = strpos($line, '\"', $pageviewsPos+8);
$date = substr($line, $datePos+9, $datePosClose-$datePos-9);
$dateText = substr($line, $dateTextPos+8, $dateTextPosClose-$dateTextPos-8);
$visitors = substr($line, $visitorsPos+8, $visitorsPosClose-$visitorsPos-8);
$pageviews = substr($line, $pageviewsPos+8, $pageviewsPosClose-$pageviewsPos-8);
}
Started investigation of your api issue will place info here soon.
Which type of statistics you want to get?
