I am trying to get allele frequencies for all gene symbols present in HGNC for all Cancer types present on TCGA. In Web-API, there is no way to get allele frequency directly as it's shown in cBioPortal's query. So I tried to write a perl script to download 'mutation table' for each cancer type, but I couldn't get it. I even tried to download open access MAFs, but I couldn't get the allele frequency column in it. Is there any way to download the mutation data which includes allele frequency with it?

Thanks Maruthi. I have stopped using cBioPortal itself as I found TCGA's 'Firebrowse' more useful. They got an interactive API for getting data.
