Scott,

How about:

1) Use curl to get the file size from the HTTP header using the -- 
head option:

>        -I/--head
>               (HTTP/FTP/FILE) Fetch the HTTP-header only! HTTP- 
> servers feature
>               the command HEAD which this uses to get nothing but   
> the  header
>               of  a  document.  When used on a FTP or FILE file,  
> curl displays
>               the file size and last modification time only.

2) Download the file to the user's temporary folder, and monitor the  
size of the temp file.
