Answer 1

I converted your JSON using JsonToCSharp...and then converted the C# to vb.net...

Public Class Datum
    Public Property clan_id() As System.Nullable(Of Integer)
        Get
            Return m_clan_id
        End Get
        Set
            m_clan_id = Value
        End Set
    End Property
    Private m_clan_id As System.Nullable(Of Integer)
    Public Property nickname() As String
        Get
            Return m_nickname
        End Get
        Set
            m_nickname = Value
        End Set
    End Property
    Private m_nickname As String
    Public Property id() As Integer
        Get
            Return m_id
        End Get
        Set
            m_id = Value
        End Set
    End Property
    Private m_id As Integer
End Class

Public Class RootObject
    Public Property status() As String
        Get
            Return m_status
        End Get
        Set
            m_status = Value
        End Set
    End Property
    Private m_status As String
    Public Property count() As Integer
        Get
            Return m_count
        End Get
        Set
            m_count = Value
        End Set
    End Property
    Private m_count As Integer
    Public Property data() As List(Of Datum)
        Get
            Return m_data
        End Get
        Set
            m_data = Value
        End Set
    End Property
    Private m_data As List(Of Datum)
End Class

Give these classes a try.

Answer 2

You're close; you've got your parentheses in the wrong place. In your Rootobject class, change this line:

Public Property data() As Datum

to this:

Public Property data As Datum()

Or, this will also work:

Public Property data As List(Of Datum)
