My credit card account was charged with usd 1.00 after I downloaded a free app (bitstrips). How can I request for a credit back? This is cheating!!!

Your card was not "charged".  Apple requested a charge hold approval.  They must submit an actual charge to the holding bank/institution within a set period (usually 5 business days) and if they don't the hold will roll off.  For free apps, they won't submit the actual charge, and the hold will roll off.  This is why you see so many people complaiing about not being able to "purchase" free apps, because the hold approval for $1.00 is rejected by their credit card company, either due to expired card, incorrect CVV, or no available credit.
