Can we get a link on this page to the next part of the process (maybe the statistics page?) since no one will just connect to Kongregate and not continue past this point.

UnknownGuardian's idea is a good one - some less advanced developers may have no idea to look under the Client Function List (although it is sort of mentioned other places, the workflow could be somewhat confusing to someone who doesn't know what they're doing).

- it would be ideal if the "shadow services" API would come with some dummy data for username/id/isGuest etc, as otherwise I keep getting errors if testing locally?
ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property getUsername not found on com.kongregate.as3.client.services.UserServiceShadow
- which kindof defeats the purpose of having the opportunity to test locally at all, if I cant load anything without the app crashing due to these errors...

I am having trouble with the API. When testing locally, "shadow services" are working as expected, reporting stats when it should, but when I upload to Kongregate, the game isn't even connecting to the API for some reason. Anyone have any hints or advice with this?

This has already been mentioned but I just wanted to quote it for emphasis. It would be really nice in a debugging environment to have the shadow services return some kind of dummy data that would give us a better idea of what we'll be doing with the data we receive.

It seems that you have to be connected to the internet for the first connection (or build). Perhaps you should mention this? The error thrown if you are not connected:
Warning: HTTP send request error, 12031: /flash/API_AS3_Local.swf
Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found.

Easy to use, well writen. Took me exactly 2 minutes to implement including the statistics, love it.
A tip though: Maybe good to show the code als a class, or maybe add a .as file that can be downloaded. For people like me that only use OO programming it might make things easier and also it is always a good thing to get people to use OO programming :).
Thanks a lot for the great api

There is a variable that isn't established called "this" in this line:
this.addChild(loader);
What variable type is "this"?
