    Take a look at the Authentication Overview at http://developer.netflix.com/docs/Security#0_18325. In step 7 where you get the access token for a user you also get the user ID. Authentication is a bit complex, but it is the only way to access user data. There are links to sample code at http://developer.netflix.com/page/Resources.
