Manipulating variables

I have a script that extracts all of the links on a particular page. I want to then take the results of this operation and do a search/ replace on all the urls that are returned and pass the results to another action. I managed to figure out a hacky way that involves exporting to a text document, then using a manually recorded macro that presses command-f, types in the two strings, then presses enter... Then reimports from the text document so I can pass the result to the next action. But clearly this is a ridiculous solution.

Is there a better way?
