Am I simply using the incorrect api calls for this? Or should I be approaching this from an entirely different angle? The end goal is to search Wiktionary for the definition of a dynamically submitted word from within a Flash AS3 program, so I don't think there should be any problems with restricted information.
Yes, you're taking a totally wrong angle here. Any cross-domain restrictions are imposed by Flash or whatever it is you're using to send your HTTP requests. The API or WMF's servers have nothing to do with this: Flash or the browser or whatever is preventing your requests from ever being sent.
Actually with flash, the WMF servers do have something to do with it. Flash would require[1] a crossdomain.xml file on them to permit its access.
