Not sure if it's too late for you to start this but, you might look into using xmlrpc to manage your WordPress instance. There's quite a bit of existing code out there for doing this, and you could start here http://osflash.org/xmlrpcflash with a working xmlrpc flash client.
I mention this because it bypasses all the odd inner workings of WordPress (like your cookie issue) and offers a simple "wp.newComment" method for you to use. Open the xmlrpc.php file in the root of your WordPress install for a full list of methods (they start on line 128). As for the cookie, I almost remember some oddness about that that led me to use xmlrpc. If you've come to far to switch gears now, crack open "wp-comments-post.php" & "wp-includes/comment.php". That should give you an order of operation for the validation/cookie/insert-comment, and lead you in the right direction.
