Kepler Mission releases light curve data for 9000 variable stars. These stars have been dropped from the
Kepler observing list because they are too variable for the purposes of
detecting planets, but are otherwise very interesting stars.
Official Kepler data available to the public is kept at the Multi-Mission Archive at STScI (MAST) http://archive.stsci.edu/kepler/
A few examples of light curves that have been produced by the Kepler Team. You can compair them to known types of Variable Stars
