Answer 1

Actually straight replacement will not work because it converts data to string because variables are expected.
So there are at least two ways to deal with it:
1. You can create a fake (unused) variable in JSP that prepends URL query - this way all the chars before will not interfere with reading variable:
  fake=fake&username=test&password=xxxxxxxx&result=true"
2. In your complete handler you can read variables in a loop and hold them in a separate object:
function completeHandler(e:Event):void
     var varObject:Object = {};
     for (var prop:String in e.target.data)
          trace(prop.replace(/^\W+/, ""), e.target.data[prop]);
          varObject[prop.replace(/^\W+/, "")] = e.target.data[prop];
     trace(varObject.password);
