Google Login Interface
Here is situation: I have a database with Google usernames and passwords. I need some way to either a) bypass the Google login screen by submitting those usernames and passwords directly or b) pre-populate the Google login form with the stored usernames and passwords. I have been in touch with a Google engineer and there is apparently no such API available. Any suggestions or help on how to get this done would be greatly appreciated.

Sounds like a huge security nightmare, which is probably why no such API exists.
You can do the latter with some javascript I'm sure. Still sounds iffy.

Most sites worth their salt with forms like these have a hidden input in their HTML code - a randomly generated token that is checked by the server and acts like a key for processing. This prevents people from doing exactly what you're trying to do - which is post foreign data to their processing routines. Unless you can get the algorithm that generates their token you're out of luck automatically logging people in.
