Just the Streets

I would like to download streets only, no names, no parks, no icons.

I found the OSM data api…
http://api.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/map?bbox=15.42775,47.06702,15.45307,47.08043

However it has a whole heap of info I don’t need. Is there a way to download just the bits I need?

XAPI is what you want. You can use it to select only certain elements, for example highway=* will select all highways (roads and paths). Make sure you keep your bounding box small or you’ll get gigabytes of data. That might be what you want, I don’t know, but if you do please be sure to read the section on usage.

Great! Just what I wanted.

You’re welcome.
