If you open the web page that has the click to click and right-click on it an choose "Copy Location", then you will have the download link in your clipboard.   Then you can use a command somewhat like the following to do the actual downloading in a script:

tell application "Finder" to open location "http://kaydell.us"

replace: "http://kaydell.us" with the URL in your clipboard.

Does that work for you?

The command "open location" is part of the StandardAdditions OSAX. No Finder tell needed, nor recommended in latest ASLG.

Just use:
open location "http://kaydell.us"

Naked.
