        var client = new WebClient();
        String userName = "*******";
        String password = "*******";
        var response =        client.DownloadString("https://www.google.com/accounts/ClientLogin?accountType=GOOGLE&Email="+userName+"@gmail.com&Passwd="+password+"&service=trendspro&source=test-test-v1");
        var sid = response.Split('\n')[0];
        client.Headers.Add("Cookie", sid);
        String downloadURL = "http://www.google.com/insights/search/overviewReport?cat=0-7&geo=BR&date=today%207-d&cmpt=geo&content=1&export=1";
        byte[] csv = client.DownloadData(downloadURL);
        Console.WriteLine(Encoding.Unicode.GetString(csv));
        Console.ReadLine();
    }

Fetching a file

The urllib2 module is what you’re looking for here. A HOWTO is available as well. For authentication, you’re looking for HTTPBasicAuthHandler. See http://docs.python.org/library/urllib2.html#examples for an example.

Handling CSV data

For handling CSV data, you’ll want to use the csv module.
