I write an app for broadcasting to twitch.tv using C++. For that streaming I need to know the user stream key, usually an user gets that key from the page,

http://www.twitch.tv/user_name/dashboard/streamkey

But I would like get it via my app by using the user name/password.

Any ideas?

You will get it here (change "yourtwitch" by your twitch nickname")

http://www.twitch.tv/yourtwitch/dashboard/streamkey

The link simply moved. You can get this link on the main page of twitch.tv, click on your name then "Dashboard".
