I'm currently developing the concept of a simple game on Facebook. I would like to store to kinds of scores and because for organizational reason have to limit my persistent storage needs, I'm thinking about storing all user scores using the scores API. Storing two integer values in one variable would be possible using the high/low byte-trick (e.g. score1 = (score << 15) >> 15; score2 = score >> 15; score = score1 | (score2 << 15). But then the score wouldn't be a value I would like to show up anywhere and it wouldn't be directly comparable between users.

Is it possible to prevent the score from showing up anywhere?

Organizational reason? You should just store the scores normally. –  Jeff Sherlock Oct 25 '11 at 17:20
Have to work around a few (?) limitations*, so I was kind of desperate. But I will just set up an web service on Heroku now. * My app has to run on a frontend-server without own persistent storage... –  Jan Olaf Krems Oct 28 '11 at 13:43
