I asked DIsney the EXACT same question. But I clarified it by itemizing a few conditions that the OP didn't:

What if the person who is using the mouse isn't even there. S/He has set up the mouse, and the pirate, and has walked away from the game. I also clarified that the pirate in question may be using a wall glitch, so that the enemy cannot attack back.

Disney's response is that:

They cannot detect the type of mouse that is in use. They can only detect that the mouse key is being activated. As such, there is basically nothing that they can do or say.

So, I guess the OP is correct. Cheating is in the eye of the beholder. Leveling, and making the leaderboards thru AUTOMATED play, and not actually being there playing the game, is totally acceptable.
