According to <http://docs.python.org/lib/httpconnection-objects.html>, 
you can pass additional "body" and "headers" args to 
HTTPConnection.request. How about trying something like this in place of 
the last line above:

    Headers = {"Cookie" : 
"auth=buster%3A12345678901234567890exZ9rzMqgtxa5A"}
    conn.request('GET',WP_PATH % uservalue, None, Headers)
