Looks like they managed to grab the server seed through a leak in the API - we're busy patching it, and will rollback the naughty bets. Thankfully we process every single withdrawal manually, and most of the funds are all locked up in a cold wallet, so no money was lost. It's precisely because of the very high risk of an exploit that we don't let withdrawals process automatically!

It would be interesting to know if this was a custom API or a public one, meaning that maybe other sites are affected and their owners could use this news to protect their sites too.
Of course patching your own is top priority.
