way to inform rev apps to get something from web server

Here is what I want to do:

Lets say I have a large number of rev apps that will go to a web  
server and grab some data/image when told to do so (when given a  
signal to do so).

I could have these apps poll a text file or something on a web server  
every so many minutes but I want a less 'bandwidth wasteful'  way to  
inform these apps to act.

What is the best way to do this? UDP? TCP server/client? Something else?
What obstacles might I encounter?
