I'd suggest splitting your problem into two parts:
1) Write a PHP script which can spit back the dummy data. (You can test
this with a web browser)
2) Write a C# client app which can download data from an arbitrary URL.
(You can test this with a web server with a dummy file on.)
If you get stuck on either part, please post on the appropriate group
with how far you've got.
