Working With Google Webmaster Tools API

[eluser]Jay Logan[/eluser]
Just started messing with the Google Webmaster Tools API and so far, I have been able to successfully add a site and add a sitemap from my CodeIgniter application. Now I'm trying to retrieve a sites info so that I can work on an auto-verifcation feature. But the response I get from Google when retrieving a site's feed data is this:

Code:

Zend_Http_Response Object
(
    [version:protected] => 1.1
    [code:protected] => 200
    [message:protected] => OK
    [headers:protected] => Array
        (
            [Content-type] => application/atom+xml; charset=UTF-8
            [Expires] => Tue, 08 Dec 2009 20:32:58 GMT

            [Gdata-version] => 1.0

            [X-xss-protection] => 0
            [Connection] => close

        )

All the objects are protected and I can't use something like $result->body to get the data. Any way to unprotect them or what should I do?

Did you ever figure this stuff out? I'm just about to implement webmaster tools api in my system (we've chatted about it before) and I'm not sure whether to go down the Zend library route or to just write my own wrapper/parser.

Hit me up when you can. Thanks.
