The StackWrap4J 1.0.1 jar is now available! (See the changelog)
Sample Code / Screen Shot
The following code snippet was used to test the wrapper in the Android emulator:
TextView text = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.output);
StackWrapper stackWrap = new StackOverflow();
String displayText = null;
try {
Stats stats = stackWrap.getStats();
displayText = "Stack Overflow Statistics";
displayText += "\nTotal Questions: " + stats.getTotalQuestions();
displayText += "\nTotal Unanswered: " + stats.getTotalUnanswered();
displayText += "\nTotal Answers: " + stats.getTotalAnswers();
displayText += "\nTotal Comments: " + stats.getTotalComments();
displayText += "\nTotal Votes: " + stats.getTotalVotes();
displayText += "\nTotal Users: " + stats.getTotalUsers();
}
catch(Exception e){
displayText = e.getMessage();
}
text.setText(displayText);

Future
Currently we are focusing on adding more tests and fixing bugs. We are also working on adding serialization so that our objects can be easily persisted, and throttling so that users of our library don't have to worry about breaking the terms of use of the API.
Notes
The latest build was tested against version 1.0 of the API on July 28th.
