I would like to query the status of SABnzbd from a Python application. I only want to know if SABnzbd is downloading or not. What API query should I perform on SABnzbd to get this information?
Many thanks in advance...

The API documentation is here: http://wiki.sabnzbd.org/api
You may need to experiment a bit. The status is available in mutiple api calls.

Thanks, I will check the API and see what info I get on my SABnzbd build. The wiki states it is not up to date with the new 0.5.x interface, so indeed I will need to experiment a bit 
Re: Querying the download status of SABnzbd
It is up to date to 0.6.0.
The API doc isn't very good and not 100% complete.
