Not sure if you really can compare a REST API with the livestatus
interface.
One thing you might consider important: livestatus only allows the user
to retrieve status information of objects (and adds a quirky way of
sending external commands using the old crappy format like
COMMANDNAME;hostname;service;foo;1;0;x - tell me what 0 does?). Further
it listens on a unix socket without additional security layers.
The Icinga 2 API is designed to allow creation, modification and
deletion of objects at runtime, including persisting new objects and
changes on disk (and inside its cluster).
Next to that there are specific API endpoints available, such as
/v1/actions which provide the tasks to reschedule a check for all
services in a NOT-OK state for example. You can use the very same filter
syntax as known from service apply rule expressions, e.g.
?filter=match("nbmif*",host.name).
There's also a configuration management interface implemented serving as
interface to the upcoming configuration tool as Icinga Web 2 module.
Well, and lately we will also look into event streams filtered by
certain conditions.
Authentication happens either using HTTP basic auth or x509 client
certificates. Keep in mind that there won't be extensive permission
levels (only read-only, certain actions allowed, etc) as this API is
considered to be a flexible programmatic one, but does not compete with
Icinga Web 2's API in this regard (where you'll have your permission
system in place already, e.g. ad groups).
At the time of writing, we're currently developing the final stages of
runtime configuration (modified attributes, cluster sync), status
queries and events are next.

Blog updates on this topic will follow once everything (url schema,
actions, etc) is settled. Documentation is being written but neither
complete nor final (!):
http://docs.icinga.org/icinga2/snapshot/doc/module/icinga2/chapter/icinga2-api#icinga2-api
Bernd recently posted some examples in the Icinga Camp bulletin:
http://us8.campaign-archive1.com/?u=b791f3f89c2aa4ce5e741f273&id=c14e140b1b&e=bb93ecc406
We will talk about the API progress at Icinga Camp Portland
(https://www.icinga.org/community/events/icinga-camp-portland/talks/)
and also at OSMC (https://www.netways.de/?id=3218&L=1) later this year.
In case you want to follow the development closely, subscribe to
Icinga's social media channels (Twitter, FB) or check the activity on
dev.icinga.org and the git repository.
Have a nice weekend!
