After google'ing again, I found that there is in fact something that could be called an API. There is a protocol description and a WSDL for a web service [1], but it's not complete (is it?!). And then there is a C# based library[2] which allows uploading and downloading stuff (example here [3]). So I suppose it is possible, but since there is no Java library, it's not easy. Someone in a forum said it's a REST based API [4], but there's not much info there either ...
If someone likes to create a plugin for it, feel free to do so!
