Can LiveCode be used as an intermediary for two scripts?

Hello all. 

Before I use LiveCode for this project, I am curious
if LiveCode can do it. 

I have two php scripts utilizing MySQL. One is
feature poor and can ONLY export data as a CSV (no other customization
is possible) and the other is feature rich and allows for php POST and
GET and also allows custom tables and fields to be created. 

I need to
create a program where I intercept the data export of one and send
specific field data to the other. 

It has to run in the background and
work invisibly with no actual input. 

Can LiveCode be used to create
such an intermediary program? If not, what would I be better off using?
PHP? Python or Lua? Javascript? 

As another hurdle, I think the client
wants me to create a middle database to hold the data that passes
through for governmental reasons. I need this to be in one program -
Step 1 would be to intercept the incoming exported mysql data (in CSV
format) and place specific fields into the middle database and then
route it to the other script and database. 

Thanks for your help.
