 Direct link to XML export

When you export to XML, it produces a file that you can download.
Is it possible to link directly to this export (say on a particular predefined view) without going through the motions of displaying the export options?
eg. I'd like to link to something like:-
http:// mydomain.com/something.php?parameters
so that I can interrogate the XML DOM using OLE automation. This would allow me to synchronise with another offline database.

Sorry - found an answer by exploring the php file generated:
http:// mydomain.com/myview_export.php?type=xml
