I am not a lawyer but I think this would violate the terms of service for Nessus. Sections 1.4. and 1.5. of nessus's terms of service talk about stuff like this, and it pretty much says without written consent from tenable it isnt allowed. So if you ask for consent and get permission to do it, they will probably give(sell) you the API. Other then that I dont think you can do it.

Hi I'd like to have a go at writing a custom client for nessus to go with an app I'm creating. I've been trying to find docs on how to do it, or at least an API, but can't find anything. I assumed that as it was a client server model that there would be some kind of published API but I'm guessing as it is now closed source maybe there isn't. I could use nasl and call that but I'd rather interact directly with the server. Can anyone point me at something I've missed or give me some pointers?
