PayPal will limit your account soon enough for security concerns. I would highly recommend not doing what you are proposing

  This is true, a long long time ago I linked my Paypal account with Yodlee just to view balances (it would poll my balances at automatic intervals) and PayPal limited my account for "unauthorized third-party activity" or something to that effect. Now that account aggregators like Mint/Yodlee are more common, I'm sure they worked out a deal with Paypal. But automated login activity is still scrutinized.

    Would the inactivity clock keep running while you are locked out?

      This happened 10+ years ago and I don't think there was an activity fee back then. But the account limitation was removed fairly quickly. Basically I got an automated or template message telling me to change my password and keep it secure. Shortly after I changed my password, the limitation was removed.
