Points 1-3 can be done on anything with networking tools and xpath / regexp. The 4th complicates things, here it may be easier to take some selenium, since you can steer it from the same C #.
You do not know the language, since you ask the question what can be done with it.
AutoIt could do this via Internet Explorer or Firefox:
