Actually, we need some help here. Martin Atkins took a first stab at an ATOM
Media spec for Activity Streams:
http://martin.atkins.me.uk/specs/atommedia

...but is too busy to continue working on it/maintaining it. We'd like to
move away from MediaRSS primarily because of how bloated and poorly
implemented it is. If we could take a subset of the most useful bits of
MediaRSS and implement it in ATOM and then push adoption through Activity
Streams, I think we have a recipe for success.

So, if anyone's interested, we could use help ushering the spec forward.

As well, w/r/t to what Bob said about followers/following counts, you might
look at the NYTimes TimesPeople API which features these attributes:
