Answer 1

You can't as yet send notifications via the new API.

While we currently don't allow applications to send messages through this API, we're always thinking about new functionality to offer through Facebook Platform.

"Sample codes" and documentation, straight from the horse's mouth: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/api
