I'm wondering if it's possible to read the last line of a text file stored
on the Web, instead of downloading the whole 2MB file into a variable.  So

It's not possible to use the read command on a URL, as far as I know. (If you're talking to a server via HTTP, I believe the protocol requires you to download the entire file to get access to any of it.)
