As part of Bitcoin Watch, a new feature provides a developer-friendly dump of a bitcoin block at the specified height.

GET parameters:
"h" - height of block to download
"json" - set to non-zero value, to enable application/json output rather than HTML output

Examples:

Dump block 72000: http://blk.bitcoinwatch.com/b?h=72000

Dump block 72000, with JSON: http://blk.bitcoinwatch.com/b?h=72000&json=1

That's kind of interesting as an upside-down bar chart of how many blocks were produced each day.  The target is 144 blocks per day.
