There *is* an API, and has been since day one – the DBus interface [1]. It's also what systemctl itself uses to talk to systemd. (So systemctl's output is not machine readable because it's the human interface.) In addition to systemd itself, almost all other daemons – logind, machined, timedated, etc. – have their own DBus interfaces, you'll find detailed descriptions in the same website. (For systemd-run --user, however, you will need to connect to systemd's private socket or to enable the "user bus" somehow and connect to that. The option expects a single user bus (which is still a future thing), instead of the current per-session bus that it's currently trying to find your systemd --user instance on...)
