When I wrote the SourceSafe book, I was very interested in learning about the SCC API and whether there might be ways to improve it. Microsoft has it locked up, and requires some NDAs and licensing terms that I was not comfortable signing up for. That was 2001. By now, perhaps their stance has changed, especially since that's likely a legacy API.
Visual Studio Team Services Team Foundation Server would be the descendants of VSS and those are based on REAT, OAuth, JSON and so on, with a full REST API.
