Chris is right, I can use the proxy without security filter to implement 
the function but I'll not leave my server with such a service on
;-)
I'll be patient to see a different service as it's a not a priority I have.

*for the moment I'll use just this but I've though at a solution like

would be cool and not that difficult to prepare
