[YouTube-API] Youtube analytics API?

Hello all,

On the Youtube analytics page it states that "YouTube Analytics reports are generated using the same data that users are used to seeing in Insight, and much more."

(http://support.google.com/youtube/bin/static.py?hl=en&topic=1728599&guide=1714169&page=guide.cs)

However, there a couple of metrics shown in there that I haven't been able to find through the youtube api, such as retention (hot spots), monetizable views, impressions, etc.

So my questions are:

Do I need a brand page to access those features / metrics? (I guess so)
Will those metrics be available through an api? (do they come through the Insights api?)
Will it still be the awkward csv returned results specified on the Insights page?

Seems like I'm lost in the world of Youtube documentation...
