Nice
Thank you for that.

status.mojang.com
http://status.mojang.com seems to always return OK, even if some services are down

Service status/health
http://status.mojang.com/check returns some more detailed JSON information about minecraft services it will either return green (Online, no problems detected), yellow (May be experiencing issues) or red (Offline, experiencing problems):

Single service
It is also possible to get data for a single service using Example: http://status.mojang.com/check?service=skins.minecraft.net

Mojang news
http://status.mojang.com/news returns JSON news for different games (often it's just an empty array): 'check' and 'news' is used by help.mojang.com (via http://status.mojang.com/frame?content=check and content=news which contains additional javascript) 'game' and 'headline' are both rendered as text (in HTML and tags) while 'message' is html rendered in a HTML  tag. The above two JSON results would look like this on help.mojang.com:

Getting User ID & corrected case
As of 1.7 users no longer use a username, but a UUID. To get the data, the following HTTP request has to be made: the response will be JSON like this: Note: the first  is 1, not 0! requests can also be made to  but it will only return the first page. is an array where each entry contains contains the count of profiles found
 * - the user's UUID
 * - the user's IGN. Note how it corrected the case (from 'notch' to 'Notch')

joinserver.jsp
Also, I'm not sure if your entry about joinserver.jsp (look at the sessionID param): http://i.imgur.com/R1OX36E.png It seems it's sessionID=token:xyz:abc
