This all assumes that he is "spying" as himself.  JKR has never said 
exactly what Snape is doing for the Order, other than to find out 
what Voldemort's plans are.  Perhaps he is an animagus who turns 
into a bat but who's been kept off (Dumbledore) the Ministry's 
official anamagus list (something that has been regularly checked by 
Hermione) as to conceal his identity when spying.  Can animals 
perform occlumency?  Mmmm...
