POST data to another Joomla page on the same site

Question

I have a Joomla controller that iterates a number of times over some Google Checkout XML code. What I want is during this iteration, POST data to another page - in the same site.

so

com_mycomponent/controllers/checkout_iterator.php //breaks up the xml into small parts and posts then to the executor, one at a time
com_mycomponent/controllers/checkout_executor.php //does the real work for each XML element it is passed

The iterator.php controller will POST data to executor.php maybe 2 or even 50 times.

How can I do this?

To post data to a page in php, you can use the cURL extension
