Google API support OAuth2 authentication. You can use curl with --oauth2-bearer and the token you'll get from your service account on its account page (you have to go to the API console of the account, check the links below).

For PHP cURL, it's the CURLOPT_XOAUTH2_BEARER option, require cURL 7.33 at least. You have to set this with curl_setopt.

Here's the Google modus operandi for the account and the assitant for that.
