Funny you should ask, because we are in conversation right now detailing an API for module development, which will map to a clean web API. See Packs+api.
(There may be a way to do what you want already, but if so I can't answer that.)

The web api is rapidly evolving. If you know the kind of formats in which you'd like to be able to access data, I may be able to clarify both what we can currently do and what we hope to be able to do in the future.

We would like to reach the content of a card from another system. For example, I'd like to pull the contents of this card, so in a page of another system, we could include contents only from "Hi, host..." to "Thanks in advance!". Is there a way to do this? Thanks.

You can add ".txt" to any link to get its raw content, e.g. http://www.wagn.org/wagn/API_that_allows_access_content_from_other_systems+issue.txt
See file formats.

As pointed out, you can get a text representation now. We also have some XML stuff in the works that will likely be integrated after the API is released, and that pattern could be used to add JSON as well if you like that best. In short, we have some basic support now, and it will get a lot better before too long.

Thanks for the input! But I wonder, is it the only way to do it? Thank you all!

what are you looking to improve?
