I'm interested in using Google Ads in my Win Phone 7 Application. I've created a custom control that currently uses AdMob services to load ads, and I'm interested in incorporating a Google Ads provider (as well as any others I can). You can see the source for this control here: https://bitbucket.org/jacob4u2/moads/wiki/Home.
The best case scenario for me would be information about some kind of REST based JSON service that I could call and get back information like; Image Url, Ad Text, Ad Link Url. I've already done some research with the javascript that is added to a website that calls out to such a service to get ads, I would just like to know the legality and possibility of using this underlying service for myself.
Here's a look at the underlying service request and response from the Google Mobile Website Ad Sense Javascript from Fiddler:

Looks like a lot of parameters, hopefully I've removed any confidential stuff. Anyone ever looked into anything like this?
