The rapid rate at which new web service APIs are released continues unabated. Take this past week as an example, a week in which 15 new APIs were added to our directory. That’s just over 2 new APIs per per day. As we covered earlier this year, it’s a rate that is more than double that of a year ago. And given the number of new APIs we see in our queue, this will only accelerate.

What’s new? Here’s a rundown of the APIs listed on ProgrammableWeb in the past week:

• Activ Financial API: Financial market data services
• Allegro API: Online auction marketplace
• BankVal UK API: Bank and card validation services
• Dojo Learning API: Training eLearning services
• Evernote API: Online notebook service (for more see coverage at ReadWriteWeb)
• FraudLabs MailBox Validator API: Email address validation service
• FreedomSpeaks API: United States political data lookup
• Kalisty API: To-do list services
• Orange Click-to-Call API: Click to call Internet voice services
• Orange Device Capability Enabler API: Mobile device checking services
