Someone here did take a quick stab at a Ruby client
for Freebase a few months ago.   I found the code
and have put a copy at:
    http://dev.mqlx.com/~tim/metaweb-ruby.tgz

This is unofficial and unsupported.  To be honest,
I don't personally know if it works at all.  But maybe
some of the Ruby folks out there will find it a useful
starting point for something better.  We're releasing
it under a BSD license, so you should be able to do
just about anything you like with it.
