What are some technological alternatives to the Mahalo Answers widget?

We also know that wordpress.com and other free hosting services disable widgets' use for security purposes (like javascript, flash, frames, forms, textareas).

What are some technological alternatives to achieve the same effect?
Here's my idea. An alternative widget would be composed out of 4 dynamically generated images. You'll have something like:

Thus, the code will look something like:

Whoever comes up with a better idea than mine gets the tip.
(You don't have to post code, but you need to know how websites work.)
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

M$Yup, after some deeper thought and a review of wordpress' strict restrictions, I think you've got the only way right there.
You can still improve-it. :)

You can't use iframes on wordpress.com (and I'm not gonna' refute or vote unhelpful :) ).
Shoot, you're right. I figured that was too easy ;)


Yup we now have a feed for example use http://www.mahalo.com/answers/feeds/users/rslakinski for my activity feed. I'm sure you can get this into lots of places -- keep in mind the feed will be changing a bit soon, not drastically just be less vague in the title
Yes, yes!! A combo with 1 dynamic image for your profile and RSS!
Here's how it would look like (I've grabbed Mahalo's default RSS):
And here are RSS's settings:
