Answer 1

There's not a known way to get directly any data from PSN servers by only using client-side JavaScript, there are many required steps like OAuth, editing the request headers and a few things in order to perform a simple PSN ID query. To do so, you need a server-side script to create a simple API so you can do a simple jQuery AJAX request.

There are a few options, all needs you to host a script/server.

gumer-psn is based on the official mobile application, and it's maintained and updated often by me.

There is an API here which is continuously developed and works on a subscription basis: http://www.psnleaderboard.com/api

It is made with PHP and it is not official, but it does provide full game/profile data (including hidden trophies) and combines games by npcommid to store products so that metadata, screenshots and videos are included.

Whenever Sony change their system, that API gets adjusted. Another great thing about this API is that when PlayStation Network goes down or enters periods of maintenance, the API is still able to return results ot your system.
