How exactly do you "record" this? Is it a cookie that's set or do you
need a network traffic sniffer to pick up whatever header is being
passed? How often do the tokens or whatever is passed get changed? I'm
assuming each time you login there's something that gets set?

Almost any load testing tool will do this. There's nothing specific to
AD
here, you simply have to record your browser session from an
authenticated
machine. The credentials are just another HTTP request header.
