I found pipes/YQL very useful for doing some ajaxy things with sites and services that are not on your domain (since most browsers don't allow for cross-domain ajax calls, you can request a JSON version of a site's markup via YQL). However I didn't find the service 100% reliable. It will be great to have more services like this out there.
