I believe you're looking for stringio\cstringio.

http://docs.python.org/library/stringio.html

Google 'pycurl cstringio' and plenty of examples come up.

Alternatively you could just send the data to a script via pycurl that would
reside on a http server. This would use GET, and append the data as
parameters. This is very easy to do with PHP. You would use $_GET['param']
in PHP.

Hope this helps.
