Comment (by JPry):

 Hey Robert,

 If you're using Javascript, then cookies '''are''' in fact available on WP
 Engine's environment. It is only the PHP code that doesn't receive them
 when caching is in play.

 Your Javascript can capture data from a cookie, send it to the WordPress
 backend using {{{admin-ajax.php}}}, and then interface with WordPress that
 way. Unless I'm misunderstanding what you're doing, that should be a lot
 simpler than what you're currently describing.
