get_ip.asp
Location: http://www.statemachine.info/webservices/get_ip.asp
Returns the user's IP address.
getcookie.asp?
Location: http://frixxer.com/webservices/getcookie.asp?
Retrieves the user's HTML cookie specified in the parameter cookiename.

getid.asp
Location: http://www.frixxer.com/admin/getid.asp
When used within the <get_id> tag, creates a unique user ID and writes it into the variable ID.
getnthfromlist.asp?
Location: http://www.statemachine.info/matthew/apps/functions/getnthfromlist.asp?
Takes a string of numbers, each separated by a space, and returns a string containing the Nth number, where the parameter list is the string of numbers and the parameter nth is the N value.
For example:
http://www.statemachine.info/matthew/apps/functions/getnthfromlist.asp?list=%question_list%&nth=%question_number%
If question_list = "2 7 4 12 8" and question_number = "4":
web_service_value = "12"
This can be used in conjunction with randomlist.asp to generate a random sequence.

Logs user data. This is the URL to specify within the <log_url> tag.
randomlist.asp?
Location: http://www.statemachine.info/matthew/apps/functions/randomlist.asp?
Generates a string of unique, random numbers, each separated by a space, based on the parameters max (maximum number) and number (desired number of random numbers).
For example:
http://www.statemachine.info/matthew/apps/functions/randomlist.asp?
max=20&number=5
This will return a string of five random numbers from 1 to 20, for example:
5 3 13 10 6
This can be used in conjunction with getnthfromlist.asp to generate a random sequence.
setcookie.asp?

Sets the user's HTML cookie specified in the parameter cookiename to the value specified in the parameter cookievalue.
Example:
http://frixxer.com/webservices/getcookie.asp?cookiename=a_cookie&cookievalue=x

Example:
http://frixxer.com/webservices/getcookie.asp?delimiter=,&names=cookie_1,cookie_2&values=%value_a%,%value_b%
textmatch.asp?
Location: http://www.statemachine.info/matthew/apps/functions/textmatch.asp?

Returns one of five possible values: MATCH if the string matched, NOMATCH if it did not match, ERROR if there was an error in the web service, BLANK if an empty string was passed as test, or SN if a profanity was passed as test.
For example:
http://www.statemachine.info/matthew/apps/functions/textmatch.asp?test=%input%&acceptable=%acceptable_text%
If input = "hello" and acceptable_text = "hello|hi|hey"
web_service_value = "MATCH"
