Is there an RSS feed like https://serverfault.com/feeds/user/2561 but for answers only, for a specified user?

You could probably do something with IFTTT. Use the feed channel with the "New feed item matches" trigger. (I'd search by "Answer by {your display name}". Then use whatever channel matches the best way to get it on to your blog. (There are channels for WordPress, Blogger, Medium, Tumblr, and Weebly.)– aleNov 30, 2016 at 15:22

Currently, no.
But, if you really want to stalk somebody, don't you want to know everything that they do?

There is now. I have created an application called Stack2RSS that converts API requests into RSS feeds.
A feed that fetches all of a user's answers looks something like this:
http://stack2rss.quickmediasolutions.com/2.2/users/{id}/answers?site={site}
Example that fetches all of the answers posted by user #1 (Jeff Atwood) on SuperUser:
http://stack2rss.quickmediasolutions.com/2.2/users/1/answers?site=superuser

+1 that's an awesome app! Is there a reason why these RSS feeds can't seem to work in the chatroom feeds? Jan 28, 2014 at 0:49

Parse their answer-source:
https://meta.stackoverflow.com/api/useranswers.html?userid=130154&page=1&pagesize=10&sort=recent
That will show you their most recent 10. Change pagesize to increase count.
You can take the regular user feed, and then filter it using one of the rss filtering websites, for example, https://siftrss.com/
Next best thing/workaround is to bookmark the user's recent tab and refresh every now and then. Now you'll not only be able to see their movements on answering questions, but when they comment and if they edit a post as well.
