Web (Rest/SOAP) API for Moodle Question Bank

Hi All, 

I am looking at various open source software stacks for a project I am doing which closely resembles Question Bank/Quiz. Moodle looks very promising but I am not clear yet on couple of things.

A) Since I need to make a different front-end I need good API interface for Question Bank/Question Engine? I didn't find much details on this.. Can someone help?

B) What type of Authentication/ API can Moodle support? oAuth?

A) There are not web services for the question bank, but only because no-one has needed them yet, so they have never been implemented. It would be perfectly possible to add web services here, but someone will have to do the work.

B) looks like you already answered this yourself, but https://docs.moodle.org/28/en/Authentication
