To get the data two chars at a time, you could do:
$len = strlen($data);
for ($i = 0; $i < $len; $i += 2) {
$str = substr($data, $i, 2);
echo "String is \"$str\".\n";
}
To access using a streams interface, you could dump the data into a
temporary file, then read it in. Or create a stream wrapper with
stream_wrapper_register.
