We use the three dimensional uniformly frustrated XY model as a model for a high temperature superconductor in an applied magnetic field and explicitly measure the longitudinal correlation length {xi}{sub z} in the vortex line liquid phase. We determine the scaling of {xi}{sub z} with magnetic field and system anisotropy close to the vortex lattice melting transition. We apply our results to determine the extent of longitudinal correlations in YBCO just above melting. {copyright} {ital 1999} {ital The American Physical Society}
