I intend to pull trend points from a JACE hosting NHaystack using Mathematica (www.wri.com). Is there a means of configuring NHaystack and/or the Niagara WebSphere instance so that login authentication is possible for user-agents that lack Javascript engines to process the client-side re-direction and nonce?

Nhaystack does not handle authentication -- it is dependent on Niagara's WebService for that (which BTW is not WebSphere).
However, it is pretty straightforwards to do the client side part of authentication without javascript, as long as the Niagara server is configured to allow Basic Authentication. The haystack-java toolkit has an example of how to do it in java; you should be able to port it to your language-of-choice without too much trouble.

I forgot to mention that HClient.java is the file you want to look at.
