   I was searching the site but couldn't find anything to explicitly add a user to wp so not sure if it doesn't exist or I've overlooked it. What I'm trying to do is create a WordPress user via an external script. So if someone signs up for my site, I can also create a WP user for them.

   I can just do a SQL insert, but was wondering if there was an API out there for this.

   Hi there Halldorr

   Did you find an answer for this? I am trying to do the exact same thing.

   I think you'd have to load wp-load.php and use WordPress' native functions found in wp-includes/registration.php. As far as I know, there are only external APIs in WordPress for posting.
