Based on the demo *recent_questions.py* example, I am using the following code to retrieve the 10 most recent questions at the command line:

    so = stackexchange.Site(stackexchange.StackOverflow)
    questions = so.recent_questions(pagesize=10)
    for q in questions:
        print "question retrieved:", q.title.encode('ascii', 'ignore'), "\t", q.id
        ...

As you can see I am displaying the `title` and `id` attributes of each question object.

My question has 2 parts:

 1. How can I get a list of attributes to each method (such as recent_questions)? I simply guessed correctly that `id` would work, but it does not seem to be listed when I refer to `>>> help(stackexchange)`
 2. I would like to extend my script to 'star' (mark as 'favourite') some questions that grab my interest. Is this a reasonable prospect? Is there a method/attribute for this, and in which class? Most importantly, is authentication even possible via the API? This would presumably be necessary in order to 'star' questions.
