You may find that users will be rather surprised if you start sending their usernames and passwords to another domain (and with good reason). The fact that the other site doesn't give a mechanism to do this also suggests that it may not be a good idea. If you have control over the koko site, you'd probably be better off implementing a robust authentication system (or hosting the application on that domain/machine).

If you do that request from the client, what you'd be doing is handing off authentication control to the client, which means it's very insecure (ie. you trust the client to send the request to the right place, and you trust that the "Yes" answer isn't just made up by modifying the client script). Really don't do this.

To do it on the server side would allow some control over the authentication, but the method to do it would depend on what languages and technologies you use on the server side. Essentially all you'd be doing is a GET request with the parameters as sent from the user, and checking the response for Yes/No.
