Any way to get full (i.e. with a lot of decimals) NPC standings?

I know I can use the API to see NPC standings, but they are rounded to 2 decimals. Is there a way to see the exact standings? Something along the lines pf 5.328864. EveHQ used to have this but it appears not anymore.

If you want more precision, you'll need to decode and parse the relevant machonet cache files that contain the standings.

What Vessper said. API only provides up to 2 decimal precision.

Not available in the API however you can easily calculate your standings without the need to resort to digging around the cache files.

Open up Standings in the character sheet, right click and show transactions on the faction or corporation that you want.

Copy/paste the entire list (this might be several pages) into a handy google docs spreadsheet and apply the standings formula starting at 0.

Standings formula can be found at: http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Standings_mechanics

If you need help, pastebin your raw standings data and I'll help you plug it into a spreadsheet.

D = New Standing
E = Current Standing
F = Standing Change

I know this may not be 100% accurate, but it will be closer than nothing. On my site (https://www.myeveapi.com) I have set my precision to be 5 decimal places for the Character Standings section. If you wanna check it out go register, log in, click Character > Standings. I will leave it up for a bit but unless the general consensus is that 5 decimal places is cool to display, will be reverting back to 2.
