We're definitely going to have this available through the API, so look out for our release.
In addition to Digg, Reddit and Hacker News, we're looking at other blogs as well as FriendFeed and Twitter.

My app aims to be a kick-off service that allows users to jump to whatever web service they need to use at that moment... without me having to do any other work than pointing them to the correct URL... so I don't prefer the onus to be on me to create this functionality with your API :)
My own personal needs aside, I think the web-wide discussion of a URL is a pretty impressive and useful feature for general consumption... I really hope you include it.
