Yahoo has an API - the following will get the stock price for Apple (AAPL)

http://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql?q=select%20*%20from%20yahoo.finance.quotes%20where%20symbol%20in%20(%22AAPL%22)&env=store://datatables.org/alltableswithkeys&format=json

This one will get it for Apple and Ford

http://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql?q=select%20*%20from%20yahoo.finance.quotes%20where%20symbol%20in%20(%22AAPL,F%22)&env=store://datatables.org/alltableswithkeys&format=json
