There's nothing special about 32-bit integers, and writing to a file in
AppleScript is trivial.

What isn't clear, though, is how you intend to 'transform the [username and
password] into a 32-bit unsigned integer'.

Are you looking for some kind of hash or checksum calculation that returns a
32-bit integer? Do you want it to be reversible (e.g. take the integer and
return the username/password (good luck on that one)).

Can you provide an example of what you expect to see?
