"I assume that Townsend Analytics won't release their API because once they do, you can practically write your own alternative to Real Tick."

Actually, you can - except for order-entry.

Townsend has an API for accessing the quote and news servers. It's free and relatively well-documented.

>considered alternative ideas, such as DDE (is this possible?), or even ridiculous hacks,
The only thing I could add would be that DDE is very un-reliable and if that is the only way to make a custom order entry system you should wait until you find an API.
Good Luck
