Embarassingly trivial, and I don't claim it is well-written.  But 
perhaps it will save somebody a few minutes.
Quandl is "The largest, most usable collection of free open data 
in the world".
They offer a bunch of predominantly financial and economic data 
from different sources for free (with a pretty generous API 
allowance) and plan to earn a buck down the line selling 
commercial data and being a platform for distribution.  Given the 
situation with Bloomberg (the banks are not terribly happy 
following the JPM whale/Bloomberg journalism revelations) and 
structural change in the market for data, this is an intriguing 
platform.
In any case, I ported the sample C++ API to D, which was more a 
question of deleting redundant lines and using std.net.curl then 
anything else.  Perhaps someone will find it useful.
