We have recently added the ability to add "geo-fences". These allow you to filter against specific areas.
http://api.hackfargo.co/calls/type/cat/?start=10-26-2010&end=10-26-2011&maxLat=46.886&minLat=46.884&maxLong=-96.77&minLong=-96.88
You can you leave off any of these parameters and it just won't filter out anything based on what is let off. For example if you wanted to get calls for areas west of I-29 you would do something like:
http://api.hackfargo.co/calls?start=10-26-2010&end=10-26-2011&maxLong=-96.841045

If instead of looking at specific incidents you just want a count of the incidents you can add /count to the end of the path and instead of getting back specific incidents you will get a responce that has a count of number of calls that meet the criteria of your request.
Example count request:
http://api.hackfargo.co/calls/type/loud/count?start=6-20-2012&end=6-21-2013
Example count responce:
{
"count": 1649
