Generating a Google Hanghouts meeting URL

I'd like my website to be able to programmatically generate Hangouts URLs that can be forwarded to specific users in order for them to join the same meeting. To my understanding, this would be possible by scheduling an event via Google Calendar. Is there a way to do the same without relying on Google Calendar, meaning via an API call or something similar?

You can now quickly create a new meeting by going to

http://meet.google.com/new

This makes for an excellent bookmark!

Meeting URLs can be generated with no API calls. Try:

g.co/hangout/yourdomain.com/letshangout

However, guests who aren't part of your domain won't be able to join until a domain member joins and changed to hangout privacy to anyone with the link.
