Here is a link to my application developed primarily with Sikuli:

http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=129091

It is called XBMCFlix-o-mate because it is designed to be a helper application 
to XBMCFlix which is the Netflix add-on for XBMC, a very popular Media Center 
application.

Because of the limitations of Netflix on the PC, most 3rd party programs 
wishing to tie into Netflix are relegated to simply opening up a browser window 
to a chosen Netflix title.  This loads the Netflix Silverlight plugin for 
viewing.  Unfortunately,
Netflix does not provide hotkeys for some of the most important control items 
in their player (such as toggle full screen, next/previous episode, etc.).  
These limitations are in place with XBMCflix as well - it can provide a 
streamlined interface to parsing the Netflix XML stream, but once it launches 
your selected title in a browser, there is no easy way to send controls keys to 
interact.

My app, XBMCFlix-o-mate provides this hotkey support.  When using it alongside 
3rd part remote control automation programs (like EventGhost) you can get full 
remote control functionality of Netflix's major features.

Although XBMCflix-o-mate is built for using Netflix via XBMCFLix on XBMC, the 
code should be readily adaptable to using hotkeys with Netflix in a stand-alone 
browser.

My app also shows one possible example of integration between a Sikuli script 
and an AutoIt script.

Link to a youtube demo as well as the download (with documentation) are at link 
above.

Thanks to the Sikuli team for such a great piece of automation software.  I 
hope that my example can help others with their projects.
