API:Account creation/pre-1.27

Token
To create an account, a token is required.

Creating accounts
It will be possible to create accounts with action=createaccount after development of ApiCreateAccount.php is complete and the code is merged into the trunk. Presently, it does not work.

Parameters

 * : User name
 * : Password (ignored if  is set)
 * : Domain for external authentication (optional)
 * : Account creation token obtained in first request
 * : Email address of user
 * : Real name of user
 * : If set to any value, random password will be generated and e-mailed to the user
 * : Optional reason for creating the account
 * : Language code to set as default for the user

Example
Note: In this example, all parameters are passed in a GET request just for the sake of simplicity. However, action=createaccount requires POST requests; GET requests will cause an error.
