although this might be possible with libcurl - if I were you I would use
Perl for this task; you have then a simple script which runs on almost
every platform, no hassle with IDEs, compilers and MS dotnet
redistributables install which you most likely need if you compile with
MSVC 2010, and finally easy to write with your favourite text editor ...
libcurl is more meant for high-level tasks which you dont want ...
