Hitbox-API
DEPRECATED
I now work on the official documentation, so please use that. This document is deprecated.
This is an unofficial documentation of hitbox.tv API.

Repo Information
The current layout of the API documentation is sorted by what the API deals with, if it's updating user information it belongs in /user, if it deals with statistics in stored with /channel (While stats are stored within the users settings, without a channel you won't have any stats), etc.
Hitbox Information
I have created two accounts on hitbox called hitakashi-stream-int and hitakashi-test-unint that are setup with a stream and without a stream respectively to test unauthenticated API endpoints on.
Please always use HTTPS on the API, or at the very least any API requiring auth tokens.
Do not post user passwords through your server. Instead POST it inside the browser via javascript. I recommend saving the auth token inside a cookie or local storage, but it looks like you can pass the token to your server.
