This is how the WebUI actually works, it's a static page with Javascript calls to get the information to display on it. This is becoming more and more popular in web design and basically means that the hub has an API that can be hooked into (whether or not that API is publicly defined is another matter).
That said, the WebUI is currently a clumsy implementation of the above, you can look at the source code and it's fairly messy (even by Javascript standards).
