How can I get a user's Google Buzz follower count? Can I use jQuery or something else?

A:
if all you want is buzz follower count, you don't even need jQuery. Just use the JSONP support in the Buzz API, and call the followers endpoint...
<html>
<head>
<script>
function followerCount(response) {
alert(response.data.totalResults);
}
</script>
<script src="https://www.googleapis.com/buzz/v1/people/googlebuzz/@groups/@followers?alt=json&callback=followerCount&max-results=0"></script>
</head>
</html>
