Thanks for your help.

You used the lg* parameters to stay logged in, which isn't possible any
more due to security concerns. The docs hadn't been updated yet, I did
so upon seeing your e-mail. The correct way to stay logged in is to
fetch the cookies from the action=login request and pass them back to
all subsequent requests. An example of how to do this in PHP using
Snoopy is linked to from the External links section of the login
documentation [1].
