Well, Google+ doesn't have a "wall," it has "Streams." The proper term might help you find better search results. Either way, unless you're a Google partner, the news isn't good:
The API is currently limited to read-only access. From the API website:
Note: The Google+ API currently provides read-only access to public
data. All API calls require either an OAuth 2.0 token or an API key.
Because it's read-only, you will not be able to update or post any information anywhere through the API -- you can only use it to pull basic information like profile and activity details.
Given that access to the API may change over time, I'll try to keep this answer up to date with information about news or changes related to write access.

: Google+ Domains API was announced way back in August 2013, but somehow I missed its relevance to Google+.
The Google+ Domains API allows Google Apps customers and ISVs to take advantage of enhanced Google+ APIs to build tools and services that can be used in a variety of ways.
No, it does not provide full write access to a user's Google+ profile, but it does give you minor advantages over the Google+ API v1, at least within a domain. This one's mainly for mobile app developers.

Here's an excerpt from the Partner Application Form:
