We currently have SPARQL query service in beta[1], which is updated
constantly from Wikidata. Note that since it's beta it is not stable yet
both operationally and data-model-wise, so please be aware of this, also
it has timeout limits that won't allow you for now to run queries that
are too complex. But if you want to check it out and see if that fits
your use case you are most welcome.
