What Toby says is they don't need to use the API.  They source the
tiles from mapbox, who in turn use the OSM planet files or diffs as
their interface to OSM.  And they use leaflet as their javascript
thing.

The OSM toolchain, like Unix, is naturally made up of small utilities
each of which solves one problem at a time.

Cheers
