Cake 2.0.x auth

Hi all,
I'm developing a bookmarklet for social shopping, I need to let user
to authenticate trough my bookmarklet via ajax, my idea is to send to
my cakeapp username & password and with a cookie on the browser store
a session after cake has authenticated the user.

I've tried to grab username & psw trough $this->request->query and
then I set $this->request->data["User"];
Next I call $this->Auth->login($this->data["User"]) hoping that cake
will authenticate the user and return me the user model with ID and
other fields...

But it's not working...

The cakebook is not helping me... :(

I'm a frontend developer, but a this time I need some backend and I
love Cake.

Any idea to help me?
