I don't know about you, but if the requirement is simply "give me my data if I ask," I'm going to do as little as possible to get them that data, and then let them do what they wish with it from there—if it's not in a format they understand, then let them hire a third-party to write a converter; that's not my job. In this case, I think I'd just expose a single API endpoint that just spat out SQL dump statements.
