Have you tried $_SESSION['username']?

If you call `http://photobucket.com/apilogin/login?oauth_token=TOKEN` it should respond with key/value pairs and `username` is one of them. You can read more about it at [Logging In API Docs](http://pic.photobucket.com/dev_help/WebHelpPublic/Content/Examples/Logging%20In.htm) – Artem Kalinchuk Oct 21 '11 at 18:14

You'll need to exchange the request token that took you to the apilogin/login page for an access token. In the response of the access token will be the username.
