Using service capture I can see the results. You can use this call to just 
return 1 post,

var token:AsyncToken = blogapi.call("metaWeblog.getRecentPosts", "", 
user_txt.text,
password_txt.text, 1);

I think its having trouble with this date: "20070804T00:28:12Z"

It is breaking in the decodeObject() method:

else if (robject.children().name()== TYPE_DATE)
{
    var tdatestring:String = robject.children();
    var datepattern:RegExp = /^(-?\d\d\d\d)-?(\d\d)-?(\d\d)T(\d\d):(\d\d):(\d\d)$/;
    var d:Array = tdatestring.match(datepattern); // d is null
    var tdate:Date =  new Date(d[1],d[2]-1,d[3],d[4],d[5],d[6]); // error here
    return tdate;
}

This seems to have fixed it:

var datepattern:RegExp = /^(-?\d\d\d\d)-?(\d\d)-?(\d\d)T(\d\d):(\d\d):(\d\d)/;

I took off the end of the string character, "$". 

I don't know if this is a bug in the latest wordpress (2.2.2) or part of the 
date.

Thank you very much for the catch. You can get a new build and source from svn 
(I
advise this because there are other fixes in there that are not in the latest 
build).
