I believe what you want to do is to set the headers, something like:

response.headers['Content-Disposition']='attachment;filename=graph.%s'%
request.args(0)


A quick search of the book didn't turn that up, so I must have gotten it 
from postings in the forum.   The closest my quick search turned up was 
Content-Type in 
http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/10/services?search=header>, 
beginning with generic.xml.
