It is very poorly documented, IMHO.

It is a standard distribution, present under 8-9 and X. It is not a
scripting addition, but rather a scriptable app. But you can find it in the
scripting additions folder. Under X, this is in
/System/Library/ScriptingAdditions/URL Access Scripting

You call it by saying

tell application "URL Access Scripting"
set myURL to "http://yourhostpath/folder/file.php?SID=12345678";
download myURL to "desired:folder:file" replacing yes with progress
end tell


Under X, you have the option to use the command line function "curl"
(learn more by typing man curl in a terminal session).
