Hello Peter

We also needed a spamdetection API a while ago and started with a 
workaround.

The idea there was to have a lib for other extensions and call it like:
$spamdetect->init($conf);
$spamdetect->isSpam($rowtocheck);

The solution suggested by Martin (to check _POST / _GET based on some 
rules is a good idea too.

But the more transparent way would be that a spamdetection is called 
within an extension in my opinion.

Maybe the first version of the extension "spamdetection" has something 
to use. (based on blackword and blackip and some extrarules)

To have a spamprobe check is a good idea and much better than updating a 
blacklist.
