I do use amazon (US only, international affiliates have caused me
more problems) with cookies disabled. It works, though I still think
it's not the poster child you're looking for.
Have you tried the REST version of the amazon web services? I suspect
that handles the secure, scalable, and automatable requirements. It
falls down on the human requirements, and I don't think it allows you
to order, just query.
