- GetAuctionItemTimeLeft()
Via sniffing, you can get the precise number of milliseconds left on the auction. With
this, you only find out short/medium/long/vlong. However, it's been noted that the server
probably offsets this time by up to 15 minutes (a side-effect of which is that one person can
see it at "short" and another person can see it at "medium").
- GetAuctionItemInfo()
Via sniffing, you can get a unique ID for each auction. Via LUA, this isn't available.
Indeed, Auctioneer seems to go to some trouble to create a "signature" for each auction.
