Oh, I didn't notice it had SSL support, that's nice. You could look
into grabbing the data however the web frontend does (in my script
that involves grabbing a randomly generated key from an HTML page to
use in the json request). Though if it does things server side that
would mean you might just have to parse HTML, which is never ideal.
