Given that Hulu can keep doing arbitrary things to stop direct stream access (as we have been observing lately (altho getting Rick-rolled does show at least a twisted sense of humor)), this seems like a good thing to investigate.
A quick google on "python mouse click" gave me this: http://www.pygame.org/docs/ref/mouse.html, which is LGPL python code -- not sure how much baggage this comes with, but it may be a step down the road.
As to firefox extension idea, I'm reasonably certain that they can "watch" what the browser is doing (a la firebug), so there should be a way to detect when a show is over.
