I know it might be premature considering the dm guide isnt out yet but are the XP in the monster stats static and not variable like they were in 3.5?  Do you divide it up by the number of people in the party still? Or if a group of people kill 6 constricter snakes they level up?

The XP and Encounter Gen' guidelines, along with a surprising number of monsters is in the DM BASIC PDF.

Monsters have XP values, when they're defeated you split it amoungst the party.

The XP values are also used for encounter building.

And, just to clarify monster XP values seem to be static, they don't decrease as you go up in level like they did in 3.X.
