This method establishes a session and logs in with a stored hash, rather than the real password. Slightly more secure than logging in with a plaintext password, it's still recommended that this step occur via SSL whenever possible.
Most of the other methods require a SessionID, which is returned by this method. Store temporarily and re-use it for all other methods which require SessionID.
