Rebrickable does have an API, maybe you could use that?
While good for now, Rebrickable is neither LDraw nor BL affiliated. This means any updates to either colors or the library would take some trickle down time. We've tried in the past to sync BL with LDraw numbering but the BL admins didn't want to collaborate.
