The first and easiest to explain is to proxy through the server you loaded the host page from. this prevents you from violating the Same Origin Policy.
The second, and more complicated method is to inject a script tag that loads some sort of javascript object from the target server. This requires a server that is specifically prepared to use this technique, as the response must be javascript that calls a "callback function in your main application to provide the requested data.
