That's the right window.

You can send messages to this window in order to control winamp.
Just see the SDK for what you can do - but not all functions described there can be used (some can only be used from within a plugin).

Example:

SendMessage(winampHandle,WM_COMMAND,WINAMP_BUTTON2,0);

tells winamp to press the Play-Button
(winampHandle is the handle returned by FindWindow, WINAMP_BUTTON2 is defined in wa_msgids.h)
