From what's evident on the WeChat Developer Site, there is a WeChat API for integrating "WeChat SDK with your iOS and Android apps".
Specifically, I am looking for a way to check to see whether two accounts are friends on WeChat (I have access to the login information for one of those, the other of which varies). Is there a Web API for me to do this with? I was thinking something along the lines of REST, JSON, etc., though I can't seem to find anything of this sort.

Perhaps you are looking for the Official Account Admin Platform. I'm not sure about the whole friendship status thing, but that's the closest thing I can find to a WeChat REST API.

I made a code snippet for a python API to read WeChat messages (in a django app)
It also explains how to make a developer account etc
code: https://github.com/tawanda/django-wechat
Summary
Create developer account
head over to http://admin.wechat.com/debug/sandbox
Click on Login
Scan the QR code
You should see the sandbox developer page now

So my scenario is I need to get a feed from a company page to cache and process for a internal website that will display the posts. The problem is this is not a "User" it is an application and I don't want to associate this with my profile.
Facebook and Twitter OAuth2 process can be done completely programatically since it is an application authorization. However I can not see how to do this with LinkedIn, since it requires a user account, and the user to enter a password and accept the access requirements.
Any ideas on how to do this 100% programatically?
If this isn't possible is there any read only API's that are not protected via user credentials?
I think you are looking for :

Apparently not only is App to App API access not available, LinkedIn will be heavily restricting their public API moving forward start May 12th, 2015.

Google Play has Newsstand application (not available everywhere) - https://play.google.com/store/newsstand. It replaces older Currents application. It displays news/articles from many different websites/magazines/feeds.
Does any, official or unofficial, API exist, that would let me use those sources in my own application?
As far as official APIs go, unfortunately Google doesn't provide anything if their API Explorer is any indication. Google News used to have an API, but it was deprecated in 2011.
The closest thing to what I think you're looking for, assuming you want to stick with Google, would be the RSS output from Google News. You can pass an optional query parameter to search for specific topics. For example:
https://news.google.com/news?q=obama&output=rss
If you're looking for a similar service to Play Newsstand that offers an API, check out these:
Some individual sources offer APIs, such as the NYTimes and USA Today
Feedly has a nice-looking API, although I have never used it personally.
Good luck with your search!

I have already read the Instapaper API page, but it only explains how to:
Authenticate a user.
Add an article to read later.
What I would like is information to programmatically:
Retrieve a list of the articles in the "Read Later" list.
Archive, favourite, put in a folder, delete a given article from the list.
Create and delete folders.
I don't think there's a public API available yet, that would give you the functionality you're requesting.
According to this interview with Marco Arment, the creator of Instapaper, he plans to extend his API in the future:
"[...] I do intend to make a fully
featured API available soon that would
enable third-party developers to make
Instapaper clients if they wish.”
Update:
In the meanwhile, Marco Arment has made the full Instapaper API available. The only restriction is, that the API can only used by paid-subscriber accounts (currently 1$/month).

I've spent the last hour searching for an official Google Voice API documentation but couldn't find anything but a bunch of API wrappers in (insert your favorite programming language here).
Does a documentation for Google Voice's API not exist?
If you're okay with JavaScript you can take a look at their chrome extension, it gives you good idea on how to hack something together. For instance I've found this: http://google.com/voice/request/messages it gives you a list of messages in JSON
http://google.com/voice/request/user gives you your contacts and your GV number
I don't believe Google has officially published an API yet.
You might want to refer to this post:
Is there a Google Voice API?
unofficial, but has instructions for various languages and how to do some straight http requests:
http://www.googlevoice.org/ (Web archive)
It's time to migrate off Google Voice for applications. On May 14, 2014, Google will break the old interface.

Google seems to be pushing Twilio as an alternative. Twilio will be available from AppEngine.

Is there any service that receives emails users send to me, parse the content and call my API?
I would do it myself but don't want to mess with mailservers, cronjobs, etc
Thanks
I approached this problem a week or so ago whilst trying to provide one of our developers to not write something. There is nothing out of the box or hosted that I've found.
The nearest thing I've seen is a DIY SMTP framework in Python which is quite powerful (Lamson). It allows you to receive email, process it and call external services or store the message content.

Hope this helps.
Google App Engine has a mail API built in, that seems very simple to use, just forward the email to string#appid.appspotmail.com
I will use that, calling the API of my app hosted in heroku.
Thanks Chris for your answer, it is very good to know that a simple email framework exists!
SendGrid.com also offers this service. http://sendgrid.com/docs/API_Reference/Webhooks/parse.html
