Haha.. love it, I'm so glad it helped.

I had the same experience a couple years ago after spending months selenium-ing our ERP software.

finally got to it last evening. 20 minutes of playing with json libraries, and I've got a ~10 line script that runs in under a second and produces output that would have taken probably a minute to run in selenium and occasionally been flaky too.

/starts looking at other APIs to use!

Thanks!
