Thanks for reporting this. It looks like XML-RPC does not indeed support getfriends request with noauth. I will try to contact someone from LJ development. And maybe I should wrap fdata.bml (http://www.livejournal.com/misc/fdata.bml?user=orleanz) into the API.

I published 0.0.5, which contains LiveJournal.API.getFriends. If you will give it a try, I'll be glad to get some feedback.

Checked new version from npm repo, it works fine, thanks!

Fixing native RPC would be great too, because fdata.bml way is "delayed snapshot" of friend list, i.e. sometimes having minor differences with actual state that can be viewed on user profile page. As far as I remember, LJ team explicitly states it somewhere in API documentation.
