I got a key, but the whole system seemed extremely flaky and undocumented. There was supposed to be a forum, but it had 3 old posts and no new postings ever got allowed through.
One of those 3 lonely posts pointed to some Nitro-based code developed for http://atlas.metabroadcast.com (https://github.com/mbst/glycerin). Looking through their source, it looks like Nitro might support the kinds of queries that would be useful in a get_iplayer-friendly indexer. But knowing nothing about the actual data formats and performance, that's pure speculation on my part.
Additionally, email enquiries to the official help email went If anyone else applied for a Nitro key recently, have you got the same email? Doesn't look good, eh? A far cry from the initial enthusiastic "nitro is the future" press releases.
I'm a tiny bit jealous you actually got a key. I tried twice before you and just received a couple of brush-offs, as others have. But to have your key revoked? That has the unmistakeable whiff of furious retrenchment.
