Got it.  I see what you mean now.

In this application that needs to operate across domains, let's say I had
a third party "survey server" that served up the user polls.  I'd like it
to never display a poll to someone that had already completed the poll.

Thinking out loud...

So I need to have the third party server send the content to the user's
browser so that the server can read and write the cookies.  Which means
that the request needs to come from within the page content itself.

Sounds a little like google ads.  Use _javascript_ to put the poll into the
page?
