There's nothing about REST that requires you do use GETs for everything, quite the opposite in fact (read up on how the Rails REST API is designed for some inspiration).

Then again, unless you want to make a given function/input combination into a resource, you might be better of with a less RESTy approach.

Right, it wasn't that I thought you had to use GETs for everything, but that, being these are calls that change nothing on the server, GET was appropriate.
