Though I haven't used it myself, this sounds like a job for Omnigroup's
web framework, if the Omni license fits your needs.
From
http://www.omnigroup.com/developer/sourcecode/
"Perhaps the most powerful framework in our entire framework suite,
OWF, otherwise known as the Omni Web Framework, provides an advanced
architecture within which to write multithreaded, internet
applications. OWF is the work horse in OmniWeb controlling all of the
content fetching, HTML/SGML parsing, FTP server manipulation, etc. If
OmniFoundation is the Objective-C programmer's Swiss Army Knife, then
OWF is their double barrel, rotary laser cannon.
Want to write a quick app to fetch stock prices from
www.fakestocksite.com? OWF practically already does it. Need to fetch
and parse a credit report from the credit bureau in your e-commerce
site? Sprinkle in some custom logic and the OWF fairy does the rest. In
the next version we plan on integrating back scratching and toast
making."
