facebook

I am trying to implement a stateless server. I'm using LAMP with Php but when I connect to the facebook server using facebook connect. Wouldn't it return a facebook session to me which my server will mantain. Does that remove the whole point of being stateless?

Basically I want to have multiple application servers and a dumb load balancer which just sees the number of people connected to the server not who is connected to a server.
