I don't think the information about the two avalible methods are correct.
Generally, for a MapGuide call, you can either supply SESSION= or 
USERNAME=&PASSWORD=
The purpose of this is authentication, and either works (I think 
APPLYPACKAGE is different?).

You cannot use MAPNAME because that requires that you have pre-created a 
runtime map in the
given session, and there is no HTTP interface to create or manipulate a 
runtime map.

Try tagging a valid SESSION= parameter to the GETMAPIMAGE call, and it 
should work well.
Alternatively try using USERNAME=Anonymous&PASSWORD=
