How can I export my data? I know there is an API but it will be incredible useful to have a link to download everything.

Google Reader had an option to export your data when they closed their web service.

You could only export your feed URLs from Google Reader. They had content archived, but you couldn't easily export the content. People wrote their own scrapers, it was a big mess and no one knows how much content only existed in Reader that was deleted when it went down.
There is a backup tool on github[1], I use it exported my feed when a saw the news.
