I'm sorry, didn't test the actual code, but why not create just one periodical request? The first time it would check of there's no zip file created yet, so it starts packing & returns that info (Archiving... start) then the second time it sees there's already a zip file in the making and would return the progress (Archiving... 24%), and finally the archive is created and you can return a download link and stop the timer or whatever you want.
