NB, we allready do: http://triplestore.aktors.org/query/ (joseki-like
HTTP API), with (fairly generous) limits on the query complexity that will
be resolved without a key.

Its the API used by 90% of our services, and if there were a standard for
remote querying we could interoperate with other peoples data without them
installing our server software.
