That you refrain from the notion of an API. :)
Seriously, before you do anything, read the book "Restful WebServices"
by Sam Ruby and Leonard Richardson
(http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/9780596529260/). I'd do it the ROA way
(and have for some time; resource oriented architecture), but I do
understand it puts certain strain on the areas of the brain
responsible for learning conceptually new things.
