#2Wesabe has an API, but I believe the documentation is offline. See https://www.wesabe.com/groups/50-wesabe-api-developers/discu... for a bit more on that.

Charlie is right, but we aren't really Yodlee competitors. As far as I know Yodlee is the sole commercial provider of the type of services they offer.
If you want to get data from banks you should download our Firefox extension (which is GPL'd), unzip the .xpi file, and use that to get started. Depending on what you want it could take you pretty far.

#5CashEdge supports aggregation as well: http://cashedge.com/products-financial-information.php
A PFM solution called HelloWallet uses them: http://www.hellowallet.com/2010/03/09/alldata-account-aggreg...
I can't speak to the quality or cost of the API though.
I do know (as an ex-Yodlee employee) that the Yodlee bank API, although not extremely intuitive, is very powerful and heavily used by a lot of institutions.
