There doesn't appear to be a API for groups, but groups do have feeds and you can use the feed API.

Here is the FAQ about the group feed: http://groups.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=46384

Here is some info on the feeds ajax API: http://code.google.com/apis/ajaxfeeds/

And finally here is the .Net guide: http://code.google.com/apis/gdata/client-cs.html

Years ago I wrote a simple library in C# to access google's gmail feeds, it may still apply. If you want to have a look you can find it here: Gmail Tools Blog Entry
