iOS app without API, alternatives?

Im thinking about learn to develop app for iOS. I had a lot of ideas, but most of them i would need the API of that website. For example: http://www.filmaffinity.com/en/main.html

The point is: is there any other possibility of collect/use information of a site without the API, anything else without the typical parsing or scraping?

Thank you

iOS 5.1

If you're going to be using any data from that web site in your app, you need to get permission from the owners first.


Why don't you want the API for the web site? That sure would make things a whole lot easier and keep things on the up-and-up.
