If there's a player that ISN'T in the game, is it possible to get the player's userId from their name?

I know it's done when it comes to getting an image of the players avatar. Hold on, this might be slightly relevant.

"http://www.roblox.com/Thumbs/Avatar.ashx?x=150&y=150&Format=Png&username="..WinnerName.Value..""

WinnerName.Value is from my game, that's just grabbing the name of the player who wins the round. If it helps of course, give that a try.

I'm sure if roblox made a link to get the avatar of a player that isn't in game, I'm sure they'd make it possible to get the ID of someone that isn't in game.
