Well actually I got it working now. I used the library from https://github.com/facebook/python-sdk/. It said you had to create an app, which I didn't want to do. That is, to get the access token. An access token is what gives me the right to look at peoples profile.
What I found, was an app already made, in which I can edit the html to have it request any permission I want it to, and then give me the access token for my own programs. Its let's you save the code in a permalink. He is my code: http://fbrell.com/saved/6b455533f5f2c124cdc74a635d09cbd4. It will not work by itself, so you must slightly edit it. Where it says, put permissions here, type what permissions you want the token to have, separated by commas, and click run code. Then click the button. A list of request-able permissions are here: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/authentication/permissions/. I've tested it, and its cool. I posted to my wall from facebook!
