getGroups() & searchGroups() should do the trick in your case.

Copying sample code from <a href="http://svn.alfresco.com/repos/alfresco-open-mirror/alfresco/HEAD/root/projects/remote-api/source/java/org/alfresco/repo/web/scripts/groups/GroupsTest.java">Here</a>

    {
        createTestTree();
        
       /**

        */
       {
          Response response = sendRequest(new GetRequest(URL_GROUPS + "/" + ADMIN_GROUP + "/parents"), Status.STATUS_OK);
          JSONObject top = new JSONObject(response.getContentAsString());
          logger.debug(response.getContentAsString());
          JSONArray data = top.getJSONArray("data");
          // Top level group has no parents
          assertTrue("top level group has no parents", data.length() == 0);
       }
