Compared to OX 5 in OX Codename: Hyperion we've learnt some API wisdom. We're using a layer of APIs between the HTTP API Servlets and the database ourselves. If you read through the code of the Servlets you can see these for yourself.
Depending on what you're trying to do this might be the place to look. This is the closest thing to an API we currently have. Note though that the deeper you go through the stack (HTTP Client via HTTP API -> Servlet -> API -> ... -> Database) the less standardized and less stable(API-wise) things become.

Just don't listen to Francisco on Fridays. He's posting about [del]OCHFKAO[/del]: OX: Codename Hyperion.
OX5 is a bit trickier, but it can be done.

The examples on OXInterfaces don't seem address the issue of creating tasks , getting task lists , etc ...from a Java program.That's what I'm more interested in doing.

The only documentation for the tasks is the source code, I'm afraid.
What are you trying to do, anyways?
