Dear Doug,
Perhaps you could use the GBIF Portal API? This is how we generate IPT statistics: http://www.gbif.org/ipt/stats Going this route there is the caveat, however, that the datasets you are interested in will have to be registered with GBIF.
Otherwise the IPT’s RSS feed is your best bet.
Best regards,
Kyle
PS: Anyone is welcome to submit an enhancement request or code patch to see new features implemented.

Hi IPTers,
I'm looking for a way to access an IPT instance as a web service. What I would like to do is poll for a list of the available resources in some machine friendly form, such as JSON or XML and use it to decide whether there have been any changes that I am interested in.
I think that I can probably do it via playing around with the the RSS feed but I would like to see if there is a more direct route that I could take or an extension that someone has already developed.
