Well, thats really what providers are for. There is already a URL provider that can grab data from a URL. Generally speaking it should be XML data, though you can always right a provider that grabs a URL, munges whatever it gets back into some form of XML, and then spits it out. Its pretty easy to write providers too. The docs on them have a few rough edges, but mostly you just need to implement one or two functions.
