Is it possible to retrieve a list of the post numbers in a given 4chan thread, either by custom CSS or something using the 4chan API?
...my next question is, how would I go about doing that?
yes, read the 4chan api.
e.g. pic related.

That looks pretty complex. I'll just smoke some weed instead

Just use regex or something with C# you spack.
using System.Linq;
using System.Text.RegularExpressions;
string ids = string.Empty;
new WebClient().DownloadString("4chan thread link").Split(new string[] { Environment.NewLine }).ToList().ForEach(x => { if (Regex.Match(x, @"\<a\s\w{4}\=.*post..").Success) { ids += Regex.Replace(Regex.Split(x, @"post..")[1], @"\<\/.*?\>", "\0"); } });

it's just a hash of the uploaded file. it's used to identify file duplicates.
read the 4chan api, for fuck's sake.
