stack.PHP - Clean, Easy to Use Wrapper for PHP

http://files.quickmediasolutions.com/stackphp_big.png

##Code Snippet

Simple example demonstrating usage:

<?php

// Bring in the files
require '../StackExchange/StackBase.php';
require '../StackExchange/PostExchange.php';

// Connect to serverfault, with no key, caching results for 10 minutes
$posts = new PostExchange('stackoverflow', NULL, 10);

// Poll for 5 unanswered questions
$unanswered_questions = $posts->Unanswered(array('pagesize' => 5, 'body' => true));

foreach($unanswered_questions as $q)
{
    echo $q->title . " by " . $q->owner->display_name . "\n";
    echo substr(strip_tags($q->body), 0, 100) . "...\n";
    echo "Tags: " . implode(", ", $q->tags) . "\n";
    // This was silly. They're all "unanswered".
    //echo "Answers: " . count($q->answers) . "\n";
    echo "--------------\n";
}

?>

##About

stack.PHP is a clean and easy to use wrapper for the StackOverflow API. It has no dependencies and has a very small filesize. It exposes the complete list of API methods (including the StackAuth methods) to PHP applications. It is also thoroughly documented.

stack.PHP powers StackMobile.com, StackImage, StackMail, and portions of Column 80 so you can be assured that it is both reliable and stable.
