Hello.
In October I will start a pay per lead campaign for my site on a network and I have to put a code that will track and count new registrations coming from clicks on the banners shown by that network.
The code has to be called only when a new registration is confirmed by user (I am using account auto activation by email).

So I thought to include the code into the account creation confirmation message (someone suggested this way to include adwords tracking code and it is working fine, because when the confirmation message is shown it means the registration has been confirmed and the tracking code is called). This is for adwords tracking code.

About the code of the new network I am going to use in October, it is needed that the code checks and sends to a script the user nickname. The code is this (it seems it calls an image to show, but it's just a trick):
<img src="http://WWW.EXAMPLE.COM/tracking_leads/XXX/{$nickname}" alt="Leads Monitoring" />
Well, the variable $nickname has to be the new user nickname, so the tracking code can register which new accounts is a lead (by the network) and not another kind of subscription (a user that is coming by search engines).

I hope I explained clearly even if my English is bad.

The question is:
How can I check the new user nickname? During registration confirmation does it exist a nickname session variable to put into the code I mentioned (instead of $nickname)?
