OK, I added this RPC call, to mainResponder.members, it allows you to get a portion of a user's profile using a dot-delimited path from the top level of the user's profile structure. Here's a bit of sample code that returns the hitcount for the user

local (params = {"mailToTheFutureMembers", "dave@userland.com", user.prefs.mttfPassword, "hitcount"});
dialog.alert (betty.rpc.client ("www.mailtothefuture.com", 80, "mainResponder.members.getProfilePart", @params))

You can get whole structures using this, for example, this gets the entire message queue:

local (params = {"mailToTheFutureMembers", "dave@userland.com", user.prefs.mttfPassword, "mailToTheFuture.queue"});
scratchpad.result = betty.rpc.client ("www.mailtothefuture.com", 80, "mainResponder.members.getProfilePart", @params)

This creates the need for mainResponder.members.setProfilePart which I'll do next.
