I'm looking for alternatives to Chargify for a billing system that can be integrated with Rails 3, preferably one that is subscription-based. I have looked into Chargify and am wondering if there are other comparable systems with easy-to-follow API available?
Take a look at Recurly. You can see the API documentation at docs.recurly.com.
How about a RailsKit (it's SaaS)
u can try Stripe, no monthly fees, just per charge

Around September 2015 Twitter removed the option to get the share count via their API. What is the best solution to overcome it and get the share counts ? is their a 3rd party plugin you recommend ?
Try http://opensharecount.com, it gets you a drop-in replacement for the old API
It really depends on your plugin, because some have it built in now and some you need to sign up with a service and use their code.
This guide will show you how to get your counts back for all of the major ones: http://copytactics.com/tweet-counter
(Includes the official button, SumoMe, AddThis, AddToAny, Shareaholic, etc.)
Hope this helps.
When a storeowner sets up a store on Shopify, they have to enter their industry and experience level. Is there a way to retrieve those values using the ShopifyAPI gem?
No, this information is not available through the API.
I don't know if that exists, but I am looking for a minijob portal for developers.
I would like to offer mini developer tasks for money.
Does this exist ?
regards
The only one i know is freelancer.com I'm sure that many people over there would be interested in quick projects.
Or another way would be to approach developer one on one and propose those minijobs, you could pay them thru paypal for instance

I have a rails-based restful server-side api.
I want to know what services are called the most, their response time, etc.
So this is sort of web analytics, but it's for server-side operation.
Is there any free service out there that can help out( google analytics is a good analogy)?
Did you try to analyze your logs?
It is a very good way to get the statistics you are looking for without using an external service
Here is a link: Rails log analyzer
try Apigee http://www.apigee.com/ it's free and could give you what you want.
I've had the same problem. A lot of services are for web analytics, this means they super general, and it's hard to configure it properly.
What I can suggest you is to use some kind of APM. There is one especially for Rails - https://appsignal.com/. But it's not free, price starts from 15 euro / month for 250K of requests.
