Answer 1

"A subscription is created via a Website Payments Standard 'Subscribe' button. Before 2009, the subscription profile ID started with S-XXXXXXXX. You are not able to manage these subscriptions via any API calls. After 2009, the subscription profile ID starts with I-XXXXXX. You are able to cancel these subscriptions via the ManageRecurringPaymentsProfileStatus API call."

Was having the same problem and just read it by Robert and it works, you can cancel standard website subscription using API.
