Hi.
I forgot to answer my own question (for future googlers).
Here is the very simple code written in python2 for simulating web browser and
requesting token:
from mechanize import ParseResponse, urlopen, urljoin
def reset_password(url, login, mail):
response = urlopen(urljoin(url, "index.php?action=sendtoken"))
forms = ParseResponse(response, backwards_compat=False)
form = forms[0]
form['login'] = login
form['mail'] = mail
urlopen(form.click())
