having a look at the api_0.6-schema, i see that a user can have "active"
or "confirmed" status (and others) what's the difference? Which one is
used for what?

This is a question for the dev list really, but the answer is simply that a confirmed user has been confirmed by an administrator and is hence exempt from the normal spam detection.

It's basically used when the spam detector misfires and blocks a user and an administrator goes in and confirms the account to reactivate it.
