Hello,

The numbers are chunk sizes, which is part of chunked Transfer-Encoding,
part of the HTTP/1.1 specification. You should read this:
http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec3.html#sec3.6.1
For dynamically generated content, there is no Content-Length (unless your
script sets one with $r->header_out('Content-Length' => $length) or you
use the associated method in Apache::File). In HTTP/1.0, the server closes
the connection after the script exists, so the missing Content-Length does
not present a problem.
With HTTP/1.1 Keep-Alive, the browser needs to know when to stop reading
the response. The chunked Transfer-Encoding sends chunk sizes, then
chunks, like lots of mini Content-Length fields.
Humbly,
Andrew
