How do I connect to the server if the username is made up of two words and there is no password? I don't want a login window to pop up but I want to connect with applescript instead...

We need more information than that.

1)What server are you talking about? A LAN or an internet server?
2)How are these two connected? Firewire or Ethernet?
 
Connection method (firewire, ethernet, wireless, modem, serial cable, etc) is irrelevant. Protocol is the important concept here, because HTTP, FTP, and SMB authentication is handled differently.

Try using double-quotes around the string like (in case of FTP):
Code:
ftp://"my user":password@ftp.myhost.com

EDIT: Added code brackets to keep emoticons away..
