It is not in the interest of Facebook that others harvest their info, so 
most likely it is a deliberate design choice.

You might find this tool interesting: http://zesty.ca/facebook/

If you are into hacking Javascript, you could maybe adapt that codebase 
to generate RDF instead.  If so, please share the result here (I believe 
the code is FLOSS, so derivations should also be permitted to release as 
FLOSS as well).

I believe that is discouraged, as the number is stable unlike the name 
(anyone is free to pick a name themselves and change it again later).
